What you can do

Keep the reason beside the decision

Review decisions record an outcome against a particular source revision. A decision has an Approve, Reject or Return value, a reason, decision time, operation key, parent work order and team member reviewer. Supporting attachments also belong to the work order. They carry a title, file, evidence type, upload time, visibility and uploader. Together, these records let the next shift understand why staffing or work was accepted and what evidence the reviewer saw.

A supervisor submits a labor assignment for a cold-storage zone. Labor Reviewer sees that its proposed start overlaps coverage already planned for that zone. The reviewer records Reject with a clear reason and the revision under review. The supervisor changes the coverage and submits a new revision. The later approval should stand beside the earlier rejection, rather than erasing why the plan changed.

How the work is organized

  • Decisions. Reviewer, source revision and reason identify who decided and what was reviewed.
  • Files. Attachments give the work order a place for a shift sheet, image or other supporting document.
  • Visibility. Internal and Shared values help the team distinguish who should see an attachment.

What to agree during setup

Define which decisions belong to the labor review and which belong to final work acceptance. The decision table links to the work order, so the reason should identify the assignment or evidence being discussed when several items share a parent. Agree how operation keys are created and kept unique for a guarded action. Rehearse a Return decision as well as an approval and rejection so the team knows when more information is needed.

For attachments, agree a naming convention and evidence type vocabulary. An uploaded file should have an owner and a visibility value chosen intentionally. The team should test whether staff with different access levels can see only the files appropriate to them. Keep the file linked to the parent job even when a shift changes or the job closes.

Check the handoff on an actual case

Take an assignment submitted for a dock repair. Attach the shift coverage sheet to the parent work order and mark it Internal. Have Labor Reviewer inspect the assignment revision, then record a Return decision asking for a corrected start time. Shift Supervisor updates the proposed coverage and submits it again. The reviewer records Approve with the new source revision. Warehouse Manager should be able to read the whole sequence and see which attachment supported the decision.

Next, upload a file marked Shared and verify that the expected roles can open it. Check that a person outside the authorized review path cannot alter the decision history. During final work acceptance, have Warehouse Manager read the work evidence and the relevant decisions before changing the work order status.

What your team sees

  • Review history — Decisions by parent work order, reviewer and source revision.
  • Shared work files — Supporting files marked for sharing.
  • Submitted assignments — Coverage that still needs a reasoned decision.
