What is a Review Session?

The Review Session is a powerful feature designed to help users maintain complete control over the review process. When you initiate a review session, new elements are created as independent copies of the original requirements. These reviewed elements are automatically traced back to their originals, ensuring a robust link between the initial requirement and the review process. Each reviewed element is assigned its own unique code, making it distinct and easy to track.

Benefits of the Review Session

Traceability and Transparency
All reviewed elements maintain a clear traceability link to the original requirements. This ensures that every decision, suggestion, or change made during the review process is recorded and can be easily tracked back to its source. This traceability is invaluable for audits, quality assurance, and maintaining compliance with standards.

Preservation of Original Requirements
The original requirements remain untouched throughout the review process. This means that while the review session allows collaborative modifications, suggestions, and improvements, the original data remains clean and intact until the team explicitly approves and synchronizes the reviewed elements.

Collaboration and Version Control
By working on separate elements, teams can collaborate more effectively without the risk of overwriting or losing information. Each team member can contribute their insights, and the consolidated outcome remains well-documented and organized.

Streamlined Approval Process
Once the team agrees that the reviewed elements are ready, the Synchronize feature allows you to update the original requirements with the reviewed changes in a controlled manner. This ensures that only finalized and approved updates are reflected in your core project data.

Audit Trail for Reviews
The system keeps a detailed record of all reviews and their outcomes. This ensures that the review process is always under control and provides a transparent history of changes, making it easy to revisit and analyze past decisions.

The Review Session ensures a structured, traceable, and collaborative process, giving you confidence in the integrity and accuracy of your requirements. Whether working individually or as a team, the review session empowers you to make informed decisions and maintain high standards throughout your project lifecycle.
