How does the Snag List Workflow affect my existing snag list items?
Background
The Snag List Workflow is an improvement to the existing Snag List tool that allows for better collaboration and insight into the life cycle of a snag item. The workflow includes two new roles--snag Item Manager and Final Approver--as well as the following additional snag item statuses:
- Draft
- In Dispute
- Initiated
- Work Required
- Work Not Accepted
- Ready For Review
- Not Accepted
- Ready to Close
- Closed
Answer
When the new Snag List Workflow is enabled, you'll notice that the status has automatically changed on your existing open snag items as follows:
- Open items without Assignees will be marked with the status 'Initiated.'
- Open items with Assignees who have not been notified will be marked with the status 'Initiated.'
- Open items with Assignees who have been notified but have not taken action will be marked with the status 'Work Required.'
- Open items with Assignees who have responded to the item will be marked with the status 'Ready for Review.'
- Open items with all Assignee responses listed as 'Resolved' will be marked with the status 'Ready to Close.'
