Resolve a comment or proposed change
The steps and functionalities available to resolve comments are the same during Drafting stage (XX.00), WDS (20.60) or CD consultation (30.60).
To resolve a comment or proposed change follow the steps below:
- Select a comment and click on the Resolve button
- Select the type of resolution ( Accepted, partially accepted, not accepted, noted, deferred)
- Type or select a Motivation to justify the resolution
- Click on the Resolve button
When resolving a Proposal, the proposed changes can be applied and resolved at the same time. It is also possible to modify the proposed change and apply those changes to the text automatically.
