Review and approve an uncertainty budget

The author submits a complete draft for review. A different authorised member checks the range, exact unit, component classification, input mode, source type, distributions, divisors, sensitivity coefficients, degrees of freedom, fixed coverage policy, and effective dates.

  1. Open Calibration, then Uncertainty budgets.
  2. Open the budget and inspect the draft revision and every ordered component.
  3. If you are the author, select Submit for review using the current revision version.
  4. Have a different authorised member reopen the budget and select Approve revision.

Approval freezes the revision content and integrity hash. A version conflict means another member changed the lifecycle first; reload before deciding what to do.

If a submitted revision is unsuitable, an independent reviewer can Reject for correction with a reason. The author can also Withdraw for correction. The reviewed content is retained; use Create replacement draft to correct it and submit the replacement for a fresh review. Approval of the replacement supersedes the previous approved revision.

The author or submitter cannot approve their own revision. Approval of a newer revision does not alter calculations already frozen against an older revision.

Next: Assign an uncertainty budget.
