Buttons

The Mass Actions button in the upper right corner is similar to the one on the  Sessions" style="display: inline; font-family: Lato, Verdana, Arial, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: rgb(22, 7, 255); text-decoration: underline;"Sessions page:

  • Mass Actions Mass Actions icon (gray) – Disabled until you have selected sessions to process in bulk.

  • Mass Actions Mass Actions icon (green) – Run Mass Actions on selected sessions. These are the same three Actions described below for individual sessions.

The three buttons at the top right of the list of sessions determine the list displayed:

  • SUBMITTED – List the sessions that have not yet been qualified. (That is, those with a status of Submitted.)

  • REVIEW –List the sessions with a status of Under Review.

  • APPROVED – List the sessions that have been approved. (That is, those with a status of Qualified, Published, or Scheduled.)

Submitted Session List

A list of sessions with a status of Submitted.

These are usually those that have been submitted via the online  Speakers and Sessions Speaker Portal" href="https://community.certain.com/pagehelp/unifiedeventviews/speaker_portal.htm" style="display: inline; font-family: Lato, Verdana, Arial, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: rgb(22, 7, 255); text-decoration: underline;"Speaker Portal, and have not yet been passed to a tier for review.

A planner may also change a session's status back to Submitted from a more advanced status by  Speakers and Sessions Sessions Edit" href="https://community.certain.com/pagehelp/userconferences/session_add_edit_userconf.htm" style="display: inline; font-family: Lato, Verdana, Arial, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: rgb(22, 7, 255); text-decoration: underline;"editing the session.

Note: Selected by default if Submitted is greater than zero.

Search / Filter

By default, all submitted sessions are listed.

To filter the list, enter values in the search fields and click the magnifying glass. (Click the X to clear any filters applied.)

What happens if I filter on more than one selection?

List

The sessions are listed with the following columns:

Under Review Session List

A list of sessions with a status of Under Review.

These are usually those that a planner passed to a tier for review on the  Speakers and Sessions Reviewer Portal" href="https://community.certain.com/pagehelp/unifiedeventviews/reviewer_portal.htm" style="display: inline; font-family: Lato, Verdana, Arial, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: rgb(22, 7, 255); text-decoration: underline;"Reviewer Portal. (The planner would have used this page to do that.)

Note: Selected by default if Submitted is zero.

Recommendations

Click Recommendations to see how many sessions have met any of the recommendation criteria set for the review tier on  Speakers and Sessions Session Reviews Tiers Add/Edit 'Recommendations'" href="https://community.certain.com/pagehelp/userconferences/tier_add_edit.htm#recommendations" style="display: inline; font-family: Lato, Verdana, Arial, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: rgb(22, 7, 255); text-decoration: underline;"Tiers.

Examples: sessions that have reached the minimum score for advancement to the next tier, or for approval.

Note: This is regardless of any filters you may have applied, as described under  Filter" style="display: inline; font-family: Lato, Verdana, Arial, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: rgb(22, 7, 255); text-decoration: underline;"Search / Filter below.

Note: The Recommendations button is disabled if no criteria have been met.

In the pop up window:

  • Show Me – View a list of those sessions. You can choose to process each one manually, accepting, rejecting or passing them on for review. The actions and icons are the same as described below under Actions in the list of sessions under review.

  • Process – Process those recommendations automatically. For example, if five sessions have met criteria to be advanced to the next tier then all five are automatically moved on to that tier.
    Note: When a session on the final tier has a recommendation to advance it to the next tier, that's equivalent to a recommendation to  approve it. So 'Process" would move such a session to a status of Qualified.

Search / Filter

By default, all "Under Review" sessions are listed.

To filter the list, enter values in the search fields and click the magnifying glass. (Click the X to clear any filters applied.)

The filters include a few more than those in the Submitted Session List described above.
