How to retract a document
What does retracting a document mean?
It means that the file gets removed from the Review list, usually because you are about to review it.
Why should I retract a chapter?
If you are reviewing a chapter, please retract the chapter so others know it is being worked on. Otherwise two people may be reviewing the same document. This is a mis-use of precious reviewer time, and causes extra work for the author.
How do I retract a document?
- Navigate to the folder containing the document.
- Click on the filename to go to the View page for the file.
- Click on the down-arrow by State: pending review and select retract from the drop-down list. The state will change to internal draft in the list on the Contents tab.
