# 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 the user does not have more than one association assigned to them, then they will be automatically taken to their assigned association upon login
#### **Step 2:**
**Select the ARC module hammer icon on the left side of the screen, and that will bring you right to the "Review" tab**
- 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 that the user needs to vote on**
- 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**
#### **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 users actual vote, it is there purely to remind other members to vote if they have not already.**
**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.**
