Takeaway

It is imperative that business documents are free of errors. Using the spelling and grammar checker will not always capture and correct mistakes. Members of the review team have the option of using the track or comment features to mark-up documents. This process will assist the originator of the document in making the needed corrections. If you are asked to review documents in the future, consider using these features to provide feedback.
