Speaking of documents in consensus...


The Documents in Consensus option shows the documents that have more than one approver, where the user is one of the approvers and has already approved the document, while the approval of other approvers is pending.

The users defined as approvers should view and reach a consensus about the document’s approval. Users can change their decision if necessary through the Documents in Consensus option.

Check the document’s security settings!

The approving user must have reading privileges for the document to be approved; otherwise, this user may not access the document for approval.

It is important to note that document security does not require approval: if the document under approval permission is withdrawn, this rule applies immediately, blocking access to the document submitted for approval.

This tab is displayed when the user in question is one of the approvers and has already approved the document, which is now pending approval from the remaining approvers.
