The Evidence Review screen is where managers, admins and owners triage uploads coming in from farm staff, contractors and external evidence requests. Use it to check, approve, request changes or reject - and to keep on top of items waiting on you.
Opening Evidence Review
Open the farm and go to Evidence Review. The screen is only shown to roles with review capability ([[person/admin|admin]], manager, owner).
Side-by-side layout
Each pending item is shown side-by-side:
Left - the requirement the evidence is meant to satisfy (e.g. an SFI action, a CS option, a [[company/red-tractor|Red Tractor]] standard)
Right - the uploaded file with a preview and metadata (uploader name, time, source link)
Review actions
Approve - links the evidence to the requirement and clears the item from the queue
Reject - rejects the upload with a reason
Request changes - sends a comment back to the uploader asking for a revised file
Priority and flags
Critical items - those tied to overdue declarations or imminent inspections - are flagged so they appear first. Use the flag to triage rather than working strictly chronologically.
Real-time updates
New uploads from the farm's evidence requests feed appear live, so you don't need to refresh while you work through the queue.
Tips
Review in short, focused sessions rather than letting the queue grow
Always add a reason when you reject or request changes - the uploader needs to know what to fix
If a file doesn't match the requirement, link it to the right one rather than rejecting it - that saves the uploader re-shooting
