Assigning department reviewers, compliance supervisors, and delegates

Compliance Accelerator makes it easy to assign a number of key roles to the users of a department.

Department reviewers can review and mark the items in a department, export items for offline review, and generate and view reports. These users can also store items in research folders for further investigation.

Compliance supervisors can appraise the work of department reviewers and manage any exception employees in the department. Like department reviewers, compliance supervisors can also store items in personal folders for further research.

You can also assign an employee as a delegate for another reviewer or supervisor. The delegate automatically has reviewer access to the review sets of all the departments and exceptions for which the principal reviewer or supervisor is responsible. These departments and exceptions include those that are the result of inherited permissions or membership of a reviewer group or supervisor group. The only task that a delegate can perform on behalf of the principal reviewer is to review items. Delegate status does not bestow any other benefits.
