Submission deadlines for Reports in eScribe can be handled in various ways by navigating to Documents > Document Settings > Approval Settings.
Once a submission deadline has passed (Late Items), there are 3 options:
| Option | Expected Behavior |
| Late Items Allow | This option allows the report writers to submit the report without receiving any notification that the item is late and it does not pass through a separate workflow. |
| Do Not Allow | This option informs the user that the meeting submission deadline has passed and they must change the meeting date. |
| Require Exception Approval |
Forces the user to run a “Late Exception Workflow” in order to approve the document for late submission (a workflow that interjects in the regular workflow to get “exception approval”, after which the regular workflow resumes). |
Once a workflow has started, and the deadline has passed (Mid Workflow Late Items), there are 3 options:
- Ignore the deadline, allow the workflow to continue.
- Cancel the workflow, informing the report author and sponsor(s).
- Inform the Meeting Type Administrator that a Mid-Workflow must be started.
Note: Submission deadlines are calculated and assigned based on the meeting type and specific meeting site configurations.
