Move work through review

Step by step

1. Move task Member

   Member requests a permitted move from the current column using the expected task revision. Resolve the active workflow revision, allowed source path, blockers and effective destination WIP limit. Reserve the destination and update current column plus derived Status atomically. Set started at on the first Doing entry of the current cycle, append task events and retain the order change. A drag, keyboard action or bulk request uses the same checks.

   • Reserve destination capacity atomically
   • Updates Tasks, Columns, Task events

2. Review handoff Reviewer or Board Owner

   When a destination column requires approval, create a transition requests record for the current task revision and intended destination. The request waits in the Review Inbox without moving the task. Reviewer inspects the current work and required evidence. Decision by must differ from requested by and last worked by; holding two roles does not make self-review independent. A changed task or workflow expires the affected request and needs a fresh review.

   • Record an independent current decision
   • Updates Transition requests, Tasks
   ApprovalA person approves before the work moves on.

3. Complete handoff Member

   The move service consumes an Approved transition requests decision once, rechecking current revision, blockers, mandatory checklist policy and destination capacity. Mark Applied only when the move commits. Entering Done stamps completed at and appends one Completed task events row for Task plus cycle number. An approved request with no free slot remains approved but unapplied until it can be safely retried; approval alone is not completion.

   • Apply the decision and completion once
   • Updates Tasks, Transition requests, Task events
