Terry,

I guess we're inventing our own language here. In our system Review means review and make changes if necessary (see my manager's response). I do not want to contradict him again like it was with the Completed processes [we still haven't changed the title, though in our case "completed" = started, but not necessary finished successfully]. I just wanted to make an excuse for myself and my colleague who understood review as "view, no editting allowed". Thus for now I want your help in making my phrase correct.

>>We're discussing the topic of "Review". Our QA person (who is from Ecuador) thought, that Review means no changes have to be made to the fields. Here is a response of my manager, on which I'd like to respond with the aforementioned phrase (once you helped me to make it proper):
>>
>>The caption Review, is what we currently have for the operations selections where we allow them to perform an action on the items. Review, I think, is more generic and does not indicate whether you will be able to edit or not, whereas View indicates viewing only, no editing.
