Teams & Collaboration
Procedures change. Collaboration in Ask Compass makes every change visible, reviewed and reversible, so people can trust the version they follow.
Example
A change, from draft to published
In the demo, switch to the Editor role, change a procedure and submit it. Then switch to Approver to compare and approve.
- Step Editor drafts a change
- Exception Checks flag a missing answer
- Approval Approver compares old and newReject → back to the editor with a comment
- Outcome v2 published; users notified
Ask Compass Studio
Change procedures safely, with a person in the loop.
Studio is where procedures are written, reviewed and kept current. Every step below works in the prototype today.
Draft
Editors change a copy. Everyone keeps following the approved version.
Check
Studio flags missing answers, dead ends and steps nobody can reach.
Review
Approvers compare old and new side by side, then approve or return it with a comment.
Publish
A new version goes live. Older versions stay in the history and can be restored.
Notify and learn
People who use the procedure are told it changed. Flags and drop-offs show what to fix next.
- Linked procedures One procedure can hand off to another, such as an identity check, and come back.
- Step-level search Search finds the exact step, not just the document.
- Roles Viewer, Editor, Approver and Admin each see what they need.
- Audit log Every edit, approval and restore is recorded.
