Decide a reviewed farm-credit request and preserve the distinction between approval and provider completion.
Credit Officer records the farm, requested amount and revision against the parent application in Draft. Match the lending organization to the application. Attach supporting evidence that explains the requested extension and can be traced to that scope.
Credit Officer sends the farm-credit review as Submitted. Keep the revision fixed for the decision and confirm the reviewer can inspect its parent application. A later change needs another revision check before a decision can take effect.
Independent Credit Approver approves or rejects the submitted request. Validate the authenticated organization and independent reviewer, then persist the decision for the same parent and revision before changing the review to Approved or Rejected.
Credit Officer follows the approved review's provider reference. Treat it as Completed only after the required provider-authorized outcome is established. Independent Credit Approver can inspect the evidence; approval alone leaves the provider handoff outstanding.
