Agents and reviewers

Updated 24 October 2026

Set organisation defaults for post-execution agents — reviewers, limits of authority, diary suggestion routing and subcontract execution approval.

Set organisation defaults for post-execution agents: who reviews each step, monetary limits of authority, diary suggestion routing and optional subcontract execution approval.

In the app this page is Post-Execution Settings. Open Manage Organisation → Post-Execution Settings.

Agents and automation

Under Agents & automation (1), expand each agent type (for example Variation or Extension of Time). Enabling a type here does not start a run — teams still approve agents on the project head contract, then start runs from Active Agents.

Post-Execution Settings with Agents & automation (1) and Assign reviewers (2) highlighted

Assign reviewers

Use Assign reviewers (2) or expand an agent and set Reviewers on each reviewable step (every step except the automatic trigger).

ChoiceWhen to use
PeopleNamed reviewers. With two or more, choose All required or One approval required.
FunctionsRoute to a project function (Director, Contract Administrator, Project Manager, Site Manager, Estimator).
LoAAuto-route by Limits of authority when the amount is known.
NoneNo default for that step.

Choosing a different tab replaces the current selection. Configure monetary thresholds under Approval levels / limits of authority on the same page.

When you change reviewers, DAIV may ask whether to Update in flight agent approvers. Updating can take a waiting step away from someone mid-review — tell both people first.

Deactivated members do not appear in the picker and are skipped when steps resolve. Reactivate them under Team and access first.

Owners and Admins not listed as reviewers can still use Approve & override with a reason.

Project Diary Agent Approval

On each agent type, Project Diary Agent Approval sets who is notified when a diary suggests that agent. Choose a person or project function. Project teams can override it on the project agent card. See Diary, inbox and WhatsApp.

Subcontract execution approval

SettingEffect

Questions

Do changes apply to runs already waiting?

Only if you choose to update in-flight approvers when prompted. Otherwise new runs only.
