Country Settings enable you to make country-specific changes to your material process in PromoMats Basics.

Enable Approved with Changes

The Approved with Changes setting adds a new option during the MLR approval process which allows approvers to indicate that a material is substantively approved, but requires minor edits, such as a typo. Once the material is marked as such, the Material Coordinator can then confirm needed changes and move the material directly to Approved for Production.

Best Practice It is recommended that Approved with Changes remain disabled. When disabled, the system mandates that the final, compliant version of the document (the one that moves to Approved for Production) is the exact version that received the official Approved MLR stamp.
