About the Collaborative Review page

The Collaborative Review page is where you add annotations with your feedback on the content for the technical writers on your team to review.

To get to the Collaborative Review page, click the Review icon (Review icon) on the My Assignments page.

A Collaborative Review is different from editing a topic or map. In a Collaborative Review, you add annotations to the content that is there instead of editing the content directly. On the Collaborative Review page you can also see any other annotations made by other users who are either assigned to the same Collaborative Review.

A technical writer creates a Collaborative Review in IXIASOFT CCMS Desktop. The topics and maps in the Collaborative Reviews are selected there.
