Manage signoffs

Available on Compliance plans

Once you’ve set up signoff, you can start sending requests. The signoff process helps employees understand what’s expected of them. Each acknowledgement is documented in Quinto so you’ll have easy access to a detailed record of employee signoffs. There are no permissions required to sign off on a job, so it’s available to every Quinto user.

Signoff statuses

Signoffs are managed in a separate table in the Jobs module. Click Jobs in the top nav, click Jobs on the top left of the page, and select Signoffs to access the table. You’ll see active users who are associated to a published job. The job also needs to be associated to a template where signoff is turned on. Here are the statuses explained:
