Decisions screen

This screen lists the decisions for a given report, or part of a report. Decisions are manual choices you make about a website, such as if you decide to ignore a page, or approve the spelling of a given word.

Decisions screen

The Decisions screen shows what decisions were made, who made them, and at what time. You can also undo any past decision immediately (there’s no need to re-run a report after undoing a decision). Once a decision has been undone, you can still view what that decision was by clicking the Past switch in the top-right corner of the decisions table.

You can choose one of three options for viewing decisions:

  • All decisions – shows all decisions
  • Approved – shows decisions where something was approved, e.g. spellings, or page titles
  • Ignored – shows decisions where something was ignored, e.g. a page or check

Depending on your organization, you may wish to periodically check your decisions are appropriate, as they can be abused in order to artificially inflate your scores.
