filtering reviews by their state


Parviz Tafreshian (8311612) | asked Oct 15 '10, 7:29 a.m.
Hi,
just wanted to ask, if there is a possibility to filter reviews by their state.
My customer want to be able to filter all "approved" reviews or all "not approved" reviews. I know one can sort the reviews by the meaning of closed or still running.
Any idea, how to filter reviews?

regards
Parviz

From a users dashboard there are 3 types of filters in the review viewlet

- Active Reviews
- My Reviews
- All Reviews

Within this viewlet it will group the user by the role they perform in the review, for example

- optional reviewer
- reviewer
- approver

Also, in a project page, if you open the side bar, there is a review viewlet and it is possible to Sort/Group by review status.

Hi Robin,
thank you for your reply. I can sort by review status (startet, closed) but not by review results. Is there a way to sort by the result of review? Like all approved reviews, or rejected reviews or all resigned?

Reviews themselves don't have an "approved" or "disapproved" state... only the artifacts within the reviews have such states. As the owner of a review, you know when somebody "disapproves" an artifact by looking at the status of each artifact within the review, or via e-mail notifications.

We currently don't show anything in the list of reviews that indicates that an artifact has been "disapproved". We could potentially add some icon or some visual indication on the review; do you think that's important to have, and would a visual indication be adequate?

Hi Kirk,
yes i mean the status of an artefact inside a review. For us in my company is this status very important. It will be big help for us to be able to see which artefacts are disapproved.
I mean yes a visual indication would be adequate.

OK, I see. There are 2 ways to do this today (in 2.x), and we are working to improve both of them.

First, within the context of the review, you can see the overall status for each participant (e.g., you can see that they approved 5 but disapproved 1). We are working on improving the display of this information.

Second, outside the context of the review, you can define some sort of "review status" attribute that can be applied to all artifacts. From the project page, using the "Edit Attributes" command in the context menu, you can manually set the status of all the relevant artifacts to "reviewed". We are working to make this easier to do within the review.

Hope that helps. Feel free to provide additional feedback on this topic.

Thank you! Very good idea.
