Reviews Notifications

During the review process, email notifications are sent to the relevant participants.

Project administrators can customize email notification settings for a project by controlling who receives which notifications. Project members with Edit permission or above can customize their own email notification frequency settings for the tools they have access to.

Refer to the table in Notifications in ACC Tools and Products to access links to tool-specific help topics.

General Review Email Notification Rules

• Members aren't notified for actions performed by themselves.
• Candidate reviewers will not receive any email notifications. Only reviewers who participate in a review will receive the relevant email notifications.
• Members who are removed from a project could still receive email notifications for 1-2 minutes afterwards.

Notifications Table

This table shows when each participant in the Reviews workflow receives an email notification.

The roles in the table are defined as follows:

• Reviewer of previous steps: Reviewer for the review step or steps before the current step.
• Reviewer of current step: Reviewer of the active step which is not the final step.
• Approver of final step: Approver for the final review step.
