Approvals: sign-off by a second person

Ask a colleague to approve an assessment, a system or a risk decision, with a full record.

1 min read·Updated 8 November 2026ReviewersAI owners

Some decisions should be checked by a second person before they count: an assessment before go-live, a system's classification, or a decision to accept a risk.

Request approval

  1. 1
    Go to Issues → Approvals → + Request approval.
  2. 2
    Choose what needs sign-off (an assessment, an AI system or a finding) and which one.
  3. 3
    Add a note telling the reviewer what to check.

Reviewers and admins are notified. A request can't be sent twice for the same item while one is waiting.

Decide

Reviewers see Approve and Reject on each waiting request. Rejecting needs a reason, so the requester knows what to fix. The requester is notified of the decision.

Rules

  • You can't approve your own request. Another reviewer has to decide.
  • Auditors can see every request and decision but can't decide.
  • Requests waiting more than three days send one reminder to reviewers.
