Paragraph History

This option is available from the action's menu   icon and is also available from within the inline editor using the   icon.
Selecting the ‘Show Paragraph History’ option will open the paragraph history window:

@Mentions

Please Review enables @mentions to be used in comments and discussion threads. This provides the ability to mention participants in the review in a comment or discussion thread and Please Review will notify the participant about the comment/discussion via email.
To use @mentions while entering a comment or discussion thread, simply type the ‘@’ symbol followed by the username to be mentioned.

1. Please Review will automatically provide a list of suggested participants in the review matching the text typed:

2. Add the @mention by clicking the suggestion or pressing the Enter key.
3. Once the comment or discussion thread has been applied, an email notification is sent to the participant and their name appears in coloured text in the comment information box to the right of the document:

Here are a few things to note about @mentions:

• Only participants in the review can be mentioned.
• Once a participant has been mentioned in a comment/discussion thread, it is possible to navigate the document by @mentions in the navigation pane.
• If the review is an independent review whereby participants are unable to see each other’s comments and proposed changes, @mentions will not be available.
• Participants in Subteams are only able to use @mentions for the participants within their Subteam.
• All @mentions are recorded in the reconciliation report and the document download.
