author. The policy is automatically submitted to the policy
reviewers for their comments. Reviewer comments and change requests
can be made while the policy is In Review.

Awaiting Approval

A policy that may or may not have reviewer comments. If a policy

If a policy does have change requests, its status reverts
automatically to Draft when the review deadline passes. After the
change requests are addressed, the author can submit it for review
again.

approved policy. A published policy is accessible to members of the
audience from the Control Compliance Suite Web Portal.
