Why do approvals stay done, and what needs review after a change?

Open Review. The default outstanding view shows work remaining. Changed since approval compares affected values with their previous approval. All entries shows completed records; done sections have no repeated approval action.

Inspect saved values and source evidence. Matching resource checks are grouped across uses; expand Uses and saved values to inspect each item. Different prices, counts, evidence or review states remain separate. Select eligible entries, enter the verification basis and Approve selected. Resolve specific blockers using Open item.

Recalculation alone does not cancel approvals. Unchanged approvals carry into successor revisions; only affected checks reopen after edits. A deliberate reopen records a reason. Copying scope from another bid does not grant its approvals to the destination.

Resource locks protect editing and are distinct from review receipts. Neither open-resource counts nor outstanding individual reviews require another blanket approval before Finalize BOQ → Final. Final acceptance records outstanding reviews without marking them approved. Invalid financial inputs and permission checks still apply.
