How to Find My Pending Reviews and Outstanding Approvals in zipBoard

To clear your approval backlog and find pending items efficiently, navigate to the My Work hub in your workspace. Find the Needs my review section to instantly locate assets and review items where you are explicitly tagged as a reviewer.

How to Find Pending Reviews

Step 1: Access the My Work Section

  1. Click the All Assets Tab in your dashboard
  2. Select the My Work section to open your dedicated review pipeline and task command center.

Step 2: Navigate to Needs My Review

  • Click on the Needs my review section to instantly see review items and assets where you are tagged as an assigned reviewer. This filters out background clutter, ensuring you only see the files requiring your direct attention and action.

Step 3: Track Open Feedback and Task Statuses

  • Monitor real-time task status badges next to each item (types, versions, review status, due date, and the uploader)
  • Easily distinguish between items waiting for uploaders to implement changes and items waiting for your review sign-off.

Step 4: Complete Your Review Directly in Your Review View

  1. Click on any asset directly from your My Work list to launch the viewer.
  2. Leave precise feedback comments, annotations, or version comparisons without needing to search through individual project folders.
  3. Update the review status upon completion to shift the item smoothly into your reviewed section.

Automated Version Control in My Work Section

If you reviewed v1 and v2 is uploaded, your v1 approval no longer counts; the asset automatically moves back into "Needs my review" against v2, and simultaneously appears in "New version since you reviewed."
