Acknowledge Anomalies

Acknowledge an anomaly to show the team it has been reviewed, while it stays in the open list because it still needs work. Acknowledge one anomaly from the list or from its page, or several at once.

Permissions

Acknowledging an anomaly requires the Author team permission on its datastore. See Anomaly Permissions.

Going back to Active

An acknowledged anomaly stays acknowledged until someone changes it. Reactivate returns it to Active, from the same places as Acknowledge. A Full Scan with Auto Resolve Anomalies on can also resolve it.
