ISS-004: Identical to Editor (FIX-002)

Reviewer should only see Dashboard, Assessments, and Protocols (3 items). The identical sidebar is a permissions bug. See FIX-002.

Key Differences from Editor

The sidebar is the same, but the action buttons within assessment screens differ:

Action	Editor	Reviewer
Create new assessment	✅	✅ (bug — same sidebar)
Edit assessment (Draft/Re-Edit)	✅	✅ (bug)
Submit for review	✅	N/A
Approve assessment	—	✅
Return for revision	—	✅ (with mandatory comment)
Edit + Approve (combined action)	—	✅
Publish / Unpublish / Archive	—	—

Dashboard

Same layout as Editor:

• Stats cards (Total Vehicles, Assessments, etc.)
• Quick Actions: New Assessment, Add Vehicle, Content Pages
• Assessment Summary panel with status counts
• Star Rating Distribution and Recent Activity

Note

Dashboard was captured in dark mode. Dark mode persists in localStorage across sessions (ISS-007).

Review Actions

When viewing an assessment in Under Review status, the Reviewer sees these unique actions:

Approve

Moves the assessment from Under Review → Approved. The assessment then awaits Admin/Super Admin to publish.

Return with Comment

Moves the assessment from Under Review → Re-Edit. A mandatory comment must be provided explaining what needs to be fixed. The Editor then receives the assessment back for revision.

Edit + Approve (Combined)

Allows the Reviewer to make direct edits to the assessment and approve it in one action, bypassing the need to return it to the Editor for minor corrections.
