Manually assigning reviewers to issues can be time-consuming and often result in missed steps or additional oversight. Visibuild's Issue Approval Workflows allow you to automate this process, ensuring the right reviewers are assigned for every issue type and defect round.

Approval workflows let you pre-define a sequence of reviewers for specific issue types. This automation ensures that each issue is consistently reviewed, reducing manual intervention and streamlining your project’s review process.


Configure workflows for your project

Note: only Headcontractor Project Admins can create and manage approval workflows.

To create an approval workflow

  • Go to ⚙️ Project Setup > Select Issues > + New approval workflow

  • Select an issue type to create a workflow for

  • Appoint the first reviewer and add as many review steps as needed

  • Hit 'Create' to finish the setup.

Select the type of issue and the respective reviewer(s) in the workflow

and Voilà, I've created an approval workflow for every defect created

under the Client Defect Round.


Do I need to apply the workflow to issues?

No extra steps required! Once an approval workflow is set up, it will automatically apply to any newly created issue that matches the selected issue type.
