File icons and colours

Files in workspaces and requests are identified by different icons and colours.

Workspace files🔗

A workspace file may:

  • be added to the current request and under review
  • have been updated since it was added to the current request
  • have already been released (and therefore cannot be added to the request)

The icons and colours of the possible workspace file states are shown below:

Release request files🔗

During independent review🔗

During independent review, output checkers see only their own progress on a request.

A file on a release request may:

  • be approved by the logged-in output checker
  • have changes requested by the logged-in output checker
  • be pending review by the logged-in output checker
  • have been withdrawn from the request
  • be a supporting file (which will not be reviewed or released)

The icons and colours of the possible request file states at this stage are shown below:

Request file icons during independent review

During this stage, the researcher will not see the status of the file reviews, and will see all requested output files as under review:

After independent review🔗

After both independent reviews have been submitted, output checkers see the combined status of files on a request. Once the request has been returned to the researcher, they will also see the combined status.

A file on a reviewed release request may:

  • be approved by two independent output checkers
  • have changes requested by two independent output checkers
  • have conflicting reviews by two independent output checkers
  • have been withdrawn from the request
  • be a supporting file (which will not be reviewed or released)
