Record checking separately from approval
Company administrators grant checking and approval permissions. The review panel separates Designed, Checked and Approved stages and identifies who recorded the decisions for the current saved version.

PRODUCT / DELIVER
Make review a recorded part of the drawing.
A project progresses through Designed, Checked and Approved. ELX records who checked or approved a saved version, and a later drawing change starts a new review cycle.
All product workflowsIN PRACTICE
The approval belongs to a specific version, not every future edit.
WHERE TO START IN ELX
Save the version to be reviewed, then open the project's review panel with the appropriate company permissions.
WHAT YOU CAN DO
The tools in this part of ELX.
Use these capabilities together as the drawing moves from layout to a reviewed project.
Keep decisions tied to a version
Save a drawing milestone with a note, inspect the version cards in History and restore an earlier version as a new current version when needed. Previous versions remain in history.
Resolve open comments before approval
The approval action is unavailable while comments remain unresolved. Reviewers can return to the pinned discussion and address it before proceeding.
Lock approved work
An authorized approver can lock an approved project to block drawing edits. Unlocking permits changes, which then require a fresh check and approval.
A PRACTICAL WORKFLOW

- 02
Check and respond
