# Content Quick Edit Settings

The Content Quick Edit functionality allows the System Administrator to designate a subset of users who can make edits to content outside of the workflow approval process (i.e., without having to initiate review).

The System Administrator has the option to have this off for all users, which will force everyone to use the workflow for approval of all changes without exception.

Setting the quick edit function to “On” for Content Administrators will allow anyone with the Content Administration/ Library Administration privileges to use their discretion and opt out of putting the updated record through the workflow review process. This is intended for small changes like typos, for example. When the Content Quick Edit function is enabled for Content Administrators, they will have the ability to perform edits outside of the workflow review process on all database content that is visible to them. Library Administrators will be able to do this on content in the libraries where they have administrative access only.

A System Administrator also has the ability the enable the Content Quick Edit function for Content Owners or SMEs. When enabled, this setting will allow Content Owners and/or SMEs to make edits outside of the workflow approval process only on records where they are designated as Content Owner and/or SME.

In all instances, users who have quick edit enabled will still have ability to put content through the workflow review process by initiating review on a content record or a subset of content records when necessary.

To remove an attachment and replace it with an inline response the Document Editor will need to be blanked out and saved. An alternative to this would be initiating review.
