#3. Choose Expiration Option

#On page update (default)

This option triggers a requirement for re-approval whenever the page content is updated. It ensures that any changes are reviewed and approved, maintaining the integrity and accuracy of the information.

#A month after Approval

Selecting this will set the approval to expire one month from the date it was last approved. This is useful for content that requires frequent verification or updates.

#3 months after Approval

Similar to the previous option, but with a quarterly interval. This is suitable for documents that need to be reviewed on a seasonal basis.

#6 months after Approval

This sets the expiration for six months after the last approval, ideal for content that needs semi-annual review to ensure it remains relevant and accurate.

#A year after Approval

Use this for annual review cycles, which is common for many compliance and policy documents that require less frequent updates.

#On interval

Select an interval of days, weeks, months or years on which the content needs to be reapproved.

#On exact date

This option allows you to specify a particular date on which the approval will expire. It’s particularly useful for documents that align with specific compliance dates or project milestones.
