Managing department RVU status

The RVU Department Status page allows you to track the status of the RVU review process for your departments. Users of this page are set up by the administrator as a department owner and/or reviewer. Owners and reviewers can set the status for each department's RVU for the RVU version, view the department's RVU values, and view a change history for each department. The system only displays departments assigned to you.

NOTE: The actions taken in the RVU Department Status page do not affect any processes done in Axiom Cost Accounting at this time. This page simply provides an easy way to manage the review process for your organization.

Administrators - You can set up people outside of the costing organization to manage and review RVUs for their department by assigning them the RVU User role profile and assigning them as a owner and/or reviewing. For instructions, see Setting up RVU users.

From the Status column, select one of the following status descriptions:

Status Description

Active The department has RVU methods associated with it. This state can also be used to indicate it needs to be worked on.
Pending The department is being worked on.
Review The department is completed and ready for review and/or accepted as Done.
Done The department is updated and completed for this version (only the person assigned to the reviewer or administrator role can move to this state).

NOTE: The available status descriptions listed above depends on whether the user is designated as an owner or reviewer.

After making your changes, click Save in the upper right corner of the page.
