The Evaluation Manager role in a Taskstream DRF program is responsible for management of various aspects of the program evaluations.
Note: The Evaluation Manager can alter the evaluation after it has been released; Evaluators cannot.
Evaluation Manager Permissions
The Evaluation Management permission includes three distinct privileges that can be assigned separately.
- Oversee Evaluations: View, edit, cancel or release any evaluation at any time.
- All Access Evaluator: Complete evaluation for any author submission. Managers do not have to be grouped with a student (author) or be selected by a student in order to evaluate , however they must have visibility to the DRF area they are evaluating.
- Reconcile Evaluations: Reconcile evaluations, suspend evaluations and call for extra evaluations in programs that require multiple evaluators for a single submission.

Once an evaluation has been completed and the score released to the Author, only an Evaluation Manager can edit the evaluation.
If you are an Evaluation Manager for the DRF program, to edit or cancel an evaluation that has been completed:
- Select the DRF program from the Evaluation Manager tab of your home page.
- Select the DRF area and Authors to display.
- Locate the Author of the work on the resulting evaluation grid. In that Author’s row, click the View/Edit link for the appropriate requirement.
- Click the Edit Evaluation button to revise the evaluation or click the Cancel button to cancel (and delete) the completed evaluation. If the evaluation is canceled, it will need to be completed again.
