Reject Progress

If you are the Approver of progress entries submitted by an Assignee, you have the option to reject the progress entries from the Projects List View. If you are the Approver for a cost project, you reject progress entries on the Approve Cost Progress form. If you are the Approver for a schedule project, you reject progress entries on the Approve Schedule Progress form.

After you have rejected progress entries for which you are the Approver, Deltek PM Compass invalidates all the changes made to the progress entries by the Assignee. The Assignee can resubmit the progress entries after making the necessary changes.  

For more information, see Progress Overview.
