How do I manage comments: statuses, assignees and filters?
Open a comment to set its status, assign it to a teammate and reply. Use the filters above the list to focus on what is open.

Statuses
Status | How teams use it |
|---|---|
Active | New, nobody is working on it yet |
In Progress | Someone is working on it |
In Review | The change is made and needs a check |
Resolved | Done |
Only the team changes statuses. When a status really changes, the person who wrote the comment is emailed.
Assign a comment
Open the comment.
Choose a teammate in the assignee menu.
They are emailed (not when you assign it to yourself).
Reply to the team only
Switch a reply to Team so only your team sees it. It never reaches the reviewer, and it cannot tag a reviewer.
Filter and sort
Above the list:
Status: all, or one status.
Assignee: anyone, unassigned, or a teammate.
Mine: comments you wrote or that are assigned to you.
Hide resolved.
Oldest first / Newest first.
The counter shows how many are open. Reset clears the filters.
Pin numbers never change when you filter.
Activity
The Activity list in Finish review shows who did what and when: comments, replies, reviews, status changes, assignments and resolves.
Limits
Any team member can set a status or assign. Comments and replies cannot be edited or deleted; only status, resolved and assignee change.
