Create, publish, and finalise circular resolutions with 1 approval step
Note: If you are looking for the 2-step circular resolution process, please go to this article instead.
You can see all circular resolutions in the tab "Circular resolutions". You can filter by board or by status (draft, voting in progress, voting finished, canceled, final). In the following screenshot, a filter for "Voting in progress" is applied:
You can also see the status of each circular resolution:
- Open for voting = The circular resolution is ready to be voted on and all participants can vote at the same time.
- Voting finished = Either all participants have voted OR the required approval rate has been reached. The result is now clear and the assistant can finalise the decision.
- Final = The assistant has finalised the decision. The lock symbol on the right indicates that the circular resolution is closed and the result cannot be changed. The badge next to the status shows if the decision was approved, rejected, or undecided.
