# User Guide - Arc Board and Committee Voting Process
## This user guide will review how a committee member would vote on an ARC Project that is waiting on approval.
#### **Step 1:**
**Select the Association from the dropdown menu at the top of your screen**
- If you only have one association assigned to your account, you will be automatically directed to it upon login.
#### **Step 2:**
**Click the ARC module icon on the left side of the screen to open the "Review" tab directly.**
- You may also hover the hammer icon and click on **"Review"** from the list that pops up
#### **Step 3:**
**From the Review tab, select the project you need to vote on. Projects awaiting your vote will appear in the list with a status indicating they are pending review.**
- This will open the project details section, where you can see all of the project information and also is how you get to the forum to vote
#### **Step 4:**
**In this popup, select the "Forum" button in the top right.**
- This will take you to the forum where you can **view when and what documents have been uploaded**, **who has made comments** on the project, and most importantly where the **committee makes their votes**.
#### **Step 5:**
**To vote on the project, you will start at the top in the approval update section and complete the following:**
- **User comments:** Allows you to make comments and send them to the other approvers, homeowners (if homeowner emails are on, and management)
- To make a comment without voting, keep User vote on "Not Voted" and it will only make a comment
- **NOTE: \****Comments are PERMENANT and cannot be deleted by anyone*
- **User Vote:**Change this dropdown to how you wish to vote, and then select send
- **NOTE: Some types of votes need to have comments attached to allow you to send them Votes that typically require a comment include: Deny, Table, and Approved with Conditions.**
#### **Completed:**
**Once you have submitted your vote the Approvers section will change your voting status, and any comments made will appear in the Forum History section below**
- Please note that in the forum history, a second automatic message will show that approver emails were sent out if that option was selected. **This message will not reflect the user's actual vote; it is there purely to remind other members to vote if they have not already done so. If you need to change your vote after submitting, please contact your association manager, as votes cannot be self-edited once submitted.**
**Back in the Review Tab of the module, the vote column will show a brief preview of how many members have voted on that project.**
