      Notes

      • It is not possible to restore an archived paragraph and this action cannot be undone.

      Approval Resets

      • Any of the following actions resets a paragraph approval:
        • Deleting (not archiving) the corresponding paragraph.
        • Changing the content of the corresponding paragraph.
      • Archiving the paragraph removes the approval entirely.
      • Archiving a paragraph resets any document accepted approvals.
      • 'Reverse' actions (such as restoring a deleted paragraph that initially had an accepted approval) does not return the original state of the corresponding approval.

      Stage Blocker

      • All paragraphs pending deletion need to either be restored or archived in order for the document to move to any stage, successive or prior.
