# Track chair: Checking the status of a reviewer

In Ex Ordo, reviewers have different statuses to let you know if they are ready to start reviewing or allow you to understand their progress through the review. You can view these statuses by:

1. Clicking on the **Reviews** hub at the top of the page
2. Selecting the **List of Reviewers** tab

 

### Before the review

The main aim before the review starts is to ensure your reviewers have topics to review i.e. they are **Ready to Review**. Below is an explanation of each status:

- **Ready to Review**: This reviewer has chosen (or you have assigned) their topics and they are now ready to start a review.
- **Accepted invitation**: The reviewer has accepted your invitation to review, but has not yet chosen their topics. You can still assign them topics if needed.
- **Declined invitation**: The reviewer has declined your invitation to review. This means the administrator will not be able to assign any submissions to this reviewer.
- **Pending**: The reviewers have not responded to any invitation nor have you chosen topics for them.

 

You can use the **All Statuses** filter to view the specific reviewers in each state.

### After the review has begun:

Once the review has begun, only reviewers who are **Ready to Review** will be considered for assignments. The others will remain on your list with their original status visible.

For reviewers who have been assigned reviews, the system will provide you feedback as they complete their assignments with two statuses:

- **Reviewing:** still has Not Started or In Progress reviews remaining.
- **Complete:** has completed all assigned work.

 

You will also see:

- the total number of reviews completed by a specific reviewer
- the total number of reviews assigned to a specific reviewer
- the percentage of reviews a specific reviewer has completed
