Review uploads before they become close-ready.

CollectCue keeps uploaded files separate from reviewed files, so the team can accept or reject an upload, request another upload for a Received item, or decide a client's not-applicable request with a clear trail.

What is a document review queue?

A document review queue is a list of uploaded request items waiting for staff review before they can be accepted, sent back for reupload, or handled as not applicable. In CollectCue, the review stays tied to the request item and its current status so the next action remains clear.

Uploaded

A client has attached a file to the request item through the upload link.

Pending review

The file waits for staff review. The client can replace it during this state, and the previous version remains in file history.

Received, needs reupload, or not required

Accept file records the item as Received. Staff can request another upload while keeping the existing file or evidence in history. Approving an exemption records the item as Not required; rejecting it returns the item to Not submitted.

Uploaded does not always mean received

Review keeps the team from closing a request just because a file arrived. The file still needs to match the client, period, and requested document.

The file may be for the wrong month

The file may belong to another account

The file may be incomplete

The client may need to add context

The item may be not applicable this period

Review states

The review flow gives the team a clear way to decide what arrived, what counts, and what still needs action.

1

Client uploads a file

The file is attached to the exact request item and marked pending review.

2

Staff reviews the file

The team checks whether the file is the right document for the right period.

3

Accept, request reupload, or review an exemption

Accept file records the item as Received. Staff can request a re-upload after rejecting a pending file or from a Received item, while file and evidence history remain intact. Approving an exemption records the item as Not required; rejecting it returns the item to Not submitted.

4

Use the status to guide reminders

Only items that still need action stay in the reminder flow.

Review actions stay simple

Team members can keep the request moving without turning every upload into another email thread.

From review queue to item decision

The review queue identifies files waiting for staff action. Opening an item keeps the submitted file, request status, and review controls together.

Product walkthrough — synthetic data

The review desk brings files waiting for review to the top alongside the request period, due date, and progress.

Product walkthrough — synthetic data

The selected item keeps its submitted file, review state, and accept or reupload decision in context.

What happens when a file is not usable?

If a file is incomplete, unreadable, or for the wrong period, staff can reject it and leave a client-visible reason. The item returns to a reupload state instead of disappearing from the request.

Not applicable still needs review

A client's not-applicable request is not treated as automatically accepted. It remains a staff review decision.

Product boundary

CollectCue records document review decisions. It does not reconcile the account, post journal entries, prepare tax returns, or determine accounting treatment.
