Review Deadlines

Setting a Deadline

When configuring a review workflow, you can set a deadline for when reviews should be completed. This helps keep projects on track and gives reviewers a clear expectation.

Reminder Emails

Writerflow automatically sends reminder emails to reviewers who haven't completed their review as the deadline approaches.

What Happens at the Deadline

When a deadline passes, the document owner is notified. Depending on the workflow configuration:

• Standard: The document remains in review — reviewers can still submit their feedback
• Silence as Approval: If enabled during workflow setup, reviewers who haven't responded by the deadline are counted as having approved

Tip: Use deadlines strategically. Setting a 3-5 day review window gives clients enough time to respond while keeping your project timeline on track.
