Asset approvals

Approvals are a rating method used to quickly assess work with a standard Red, Amber, Green (RAG) scale. They can be used on a capability block or asset page.






Page Approval


A page approval can be added to any individual page, or for a portfolio or workbook, the overall asset. Different uses are possible, but typically three levels are used:


  • Level 1 - An assessor gives an approval.
  • Level 2 - Another (senior) assessor dis/agrees with the first assessor's rating.
  • Level 3 - An independent (external) assessor validates level 1 and 2 assessment.



To view:

  1. From the Asset Store, or with the asset open, click the i icon to open the info panel.
  2. Click Feedback to open the panel.
  3. The Level 1/ 2 / 3 approval is shown, with any comment (optional).
