# Supervisor Reviews {#supervisor-reviews}


The Supervisor Review Queue is where field supervisors examine completed interviews before they are included in the final dataset. Supervisors can approve responses, reject them with a reason, flag individual questions for attention, and review the full audit timeline of each submission.


## When to Use It {#when-to-use-it}
- When completed interviews are waiting for approval before being finalized
- When you need to flag specific questions in a response for follow-up
- When you want to check what happened during an interview (audit timeline)
- When an enumerator needs to correct and resubmit a rejected response

2. Click **Approve** next to it
3. The response is approved immediately and moves to the **Approved** list


### Rejecting a Response {#rejecting-a-response}
1. Find a pending response and click **Reject**
2. In the **Reject Response** dialog, enter the reason for rejection
3. Click **Reject Response** to confirm
4. The response is marked as **Rejected** with your reason recorded


### Opening the Full Review Screen {#opening-the-full-review-screen}
1. Click **Review** on a pending response
2. The full review screen opens for that interview, where you can:
   - Examine every answer in detail
   - Flag individual questions that need attention
   - Approve or reject from the **Review Actions** card
   - View the **Audit Timeline** of the interview


## The Full Review Screen {#the-full-review-screen}


The review screen shows the response with these sections:

- **Header** — the survey, submission time, and current status, plus a **Back to Queue** button
- **Review Actions** — **Approve** and **Reject** buttons (shown while the response is pending)
- **Answers tab** — every question and its answer. While the response is pending:
  - Tick the checkbox next to a question to **flag** it
  - Add an optional **note** explaining what needs attention
  - Click **Save Review Flags** to save your flags and notes
- **Audit Timeline tab** — the chronological record of events for this interview (see [Audit Logging](/user-manual/audit-logging.md))


### Flagged Questions {#flagged-questions}
Flagging a question highlights it in the review list and records your note. Flags are useful for:

- Marking answers that look incorrect or suspicious
- Pointing an enumerator to specific questions that need clarification
- Tracking which parts of a response were questioned during review


### Correcting a Rejected Response (Enumerators) {#correcting-a-rejected-response-enumerators}
If you submitted a response that was rejected **with flagged questions**, you can fix it yourself:

1. Open the rejected response from the review screen
2. The **Request Correction** card shows how many questions were flagged
3. Click **Correct and Resubmit**
4. Update the flagged answers and resubmit the response for approval


## Tips & Notes {#tips--notes}
- Check the queue daily during active data collection so field teams get quick feedback
- Always enter a clear rejection reason — the enumerator sees it and needs it to fix the response
- Use question flags for partial issues: approve an otherwise good response but flag the specific answers that need follow-up
- Use the **Audit Timeline** tab when you need to verify what happened during the interview
- Approving or rejecting is recorded with your identity and timestamp for compliance
