Performs a full pre-check against the current production state and detects:Items deleted after production has started
Items modified while already in production or completed
Conflicts between revision data and production status
ā Errors ā Approval blocked with clear reasons
ā
No errors ā Safe to approve
Step 2: View Changes#
Shows a full comparison between current and previous revisions:Detailed before / after values
Step 3: Accept or Reject#
