Sometimes you might need to send an Idea back to an earlier stage in the Challenge workflow.
Send back an Idea
- Open the Idea you want to send back.
- Click Make decision
and in the Decision dropdown select Send back - Select the reason for rejecting the Idea.
- Enter any relevant information to support your reason.
- (Optional) Select Publish feedback on Update tab.
- Click Next.
Note: You can’t send an Idea back to a previous stage if the stage is now closed. If you want to send the Idea back, you will need to open the Challenge stage again.
