How to Work with the Document Review Process

Create a topic for each exercise and work in the topic.The document review process pertains to the lessons learned, project scope statement, project report, and project closure documents, all of which go through a similar workflow.

The following tasks are involved in the review of the documents in the management of a typical PMBOK Guide project:

1. The project manager defines the resources who review and approve the documents that require a review.
2. The project manager creates and saves the document.
3. The project manager submits the document for review. The review process is initiated.
4. The reviewer receives an action item to review the document and completes their review. Once all reviewers assigned to the project complete their review of the document, the status of the document changes to Reviewed. The review process ends.
