Your approval is a decision on one specific version. Here's how to approve a proof, or ask for changes. First, make sure you're on the version you mean to decide on. If you see, you are viewing an older revision, click Load latest version. Now you're on version two, the latest. It's shown at the top, and at the bottom. Then decide. Needs changes, if something must be fixed. Or Approve, if it's ready. Your team may ask you to confirm a checklist first. Tick each item as you check it on the artwork. When every box is ticked, click Approve this proof. Approved now shows at the top, and the team is told you approved this version. If the button says Check all to approve, an item is still unticked. Approval stays locked until every box is checked. You're done when Approved shows at the top, on the latest version. Next: how to upload a new version, without losing the review history.
