After the conversation, you complete the review with an approval. First the managers approve the review, then the employee. Once everyone agrees, the review is completed and you have a report that both sides have approved.
​

As a manager, you share the review for approval:

If the review cycle has a final assessment, you need to fill it in first. If not all input is in yet, HoorayHR asks whether you want to continue anyway.
​
The review now gets the For approval status. The summary and the assessment are locked, and the input from managers and peers is shared with the employee if that hadn't happened yet.
​

If the review has more than one manager, the other managers approve the review first. Then it's the employee's turn. Whoever's turn it is gets a notification.

Once everyone approves the review, it gets the Completed status.
​

If someone rejects the review, it goes back to the In progress status and all approvals are cancelled. The managers get a notification about this, with the comment. Edit the review and share it for approval again.
​
As a manager, do you still want to change something after sharing the review for approval? Withdraw your approval via Actions. Here too, the review goes back to In progress and all approvals are cancelled.
​

A completed review stays saved in HoorayHR. You can no longer change the input, the summary and the assessment. You can keep updating the action items and your private note.
