Relevance Options

Relevance Options define how documents are classified for responsiveness during the review process.

Common Relevance Options

  • Responsive — The document is relevant to the request and should be included in the response
  • Not Responsive — The document is not relevant to the request
  • Duplicate — The document is a duplicate of another responsive document
  • Not within scope — The document falls outside the scope of the request

Managing Relevance Options

  • Add — Click Add Option, enter the name (and translations if multiple languages are enabled), and save.
  • Edit — Click on an existing option to update it.
  • Remove — Delete options that are no longer needed.

Usage

During document review, reviewers assign a relevance classification to each document. This determines whether the document is included in the final response package and feeds into reporting on responsive vs. non-responsive document volumes.
