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.
