It denotes records that are still being worked on and have not yet had a snapshot saved. **Provisional** * Provisional status is used by curators to mark their Interpretation as complete after saving an Evaluation Summary * Provisional Interpretations created by Affiliations are considered ready for their expert review **Approved** * Approved status is used after Provisional Classification has passed the review and approval process * The option to Save as Approved appears after saving an Interpretation as Provisional * Some Affiliations may require final ratification by a designated Approver, in which case the curator must select the name of the Approver from a pre-populated pull-down * Users working independently can choose to Approve their Interpretations whenever they wish. #### Approval Process Workflow ![](/files/kWtgvxCoX4rmNjOWUkPu) --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://vci-gci-docs.clinicalgenome.org/vci-gci-docs/vci-help/the-evaluation-summary/saving-an-evaluation-summary/record-statuses.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
