The review for the member of staff is not open as the monitoring needs a review to be saved and stored, or you don't have the right to access monitoring for that member of staff due to you not being the line manager or in the hierarchy for the member of staff. You will need to be added as a collaborator to the member of staff. See 'how to add a collaborator'.

Monitoring forms are also linked to a specific iP role. The member of staff and the monitoring form iP role need to be the same to allow a member of staff to be observed with a specific form.
