Approvals on the task

An approval should carry its context into the next step.

A review request needs the work, the reviewer, and the decision in the same place. This product note describes an approval record attached to the task, so the next owner can see what was reviewed and why.

What this means for the work

In the Northstar demonstration, Q4 Product Launch keeps its target of 18 Oct, owner Maya Chen, and the same six tasks across every view. The examples show the intended relationship between records.
