Recommendations in the decision wizard and clearer deferrals - Product News

Record an application's recommendation from a decision's Notification Details step, and a Defer decision now reads as a deferral from its last step to its decision view.

What's new

  • Record a recommendation from the decision. A decision's Notification Details step shows each application's Recommendation (Approve, Review or Decline, with who recorded it and when), and Record recommendation records or changes it with an optional internal rationale. It's the same recommendation the decision register shows. See Funding decisions.

Fixed

  • A deferral reads as a deferral. A Defer decision's last step is now Record Deferral rather than Send, and once recorded the step, the decision's page and its decision view say Deferred and that no letter or email was sent, with who recorded it and when. The decision view no longer offers letters, Resend Letters or Revoke Decisions for it.
  • Clearer messages when the outcome and the action don't match. Sending a Defer decision, or deferring an Approve or Decline decision, now says exactly that and what to do, instead of asking you to choose an outcome.
