Introduction
Periodic Review is a feature you can activate on guides to prompt review at regular intervals. This is a useful feature for managing internal documentation, as it lets you proactively check for out-of-date content rather than waiting for it to be reported.

On the Introduction tab of the editing interface, navigate to Periodic Review.

A modal appears, prompting you for more detailed information. Click the checkbox to Enable periodic review on this guide.

-
The two different cadence types, Absolute and Relative, lets you set custom dates and intervals for regular review.
-
Set Absolute review dates for content that must be reviewed annually, on or before a specific date.
-
Set a Relative review date for content to be checked at regular intervals, specified in the number field.
-
-
-
Enter a number into the field to specify a Completion Window for the reviewer, between the time they're assigned the review and the review due date.
-
This can apply to either cadence type.

-
Click Save to finalize your periodic review schedule.
-
Setting or editing a periodic review schedule does not create a new draft of the guide, meaning the schedule can be freely adjusted by an admin (authors can initially set up a schedule, but cannot edit a set schedule).
-
This means that approvers assigned to that guide's approval process will not be notified of a change.
-
-
-
The same functions available on an individual guide can also be set as site defaults.
-
On the Management Console, under Configuration > General, scroll down to Periodic Review.
-
Click on an individual sub-menu to change its settings, accompanied by more detailed information.
