Entering Reviewer Email Addresses Manually
For this configuration, the Final Cut Server user must manually enter the complete email
address of each required reviewer.
After the email addresses have been entered, saving the changes prompts the Review &
Approve email to be sent. The email is not sent unless the changes are saved.
This configuration lets the user choose who receives the email and how often review
emails are sent. However, this configuration is less automated, requiring more work for
the user.
To manually define who receives Review and Approve email notifications
