Community-level group based moderation helps administrators set-up group moderation across the entire community.
The ideas assigned to this specific group are held in a Pending queue until a group moderator changes its status from Pending to Active.
Advanced Group Moderation adds an additional tier to the traditional moderation paradigm allowing for a two-step approval process if the Strict approval is enabled from settings where approval is required from group moderator and then global/campaign moderator or vice-a-versa to make the idea active.

8. Strict Approval Moderation: Strict Approval Moderation is an advanced form of Group Moderation and requires a two-step approval process before the idea becomes Active.
When Strict Approval is 'ON'. There are two types of approval order Administrator can choose to either have
Group-Based Approval First: The Group Moderator has the precedence to approve the idea first.
Or
Campaign Based Approval First: A Campaign Moderator has the precedence to approve the idea first.
When Strict Approval is "OFF"-
All Moderators e.g Global Moderator, Group Moderator and Campaign Moderator will have equal rights to approve and moderate the idea.
When Strict Approval is "ON" and
Approval Order is 'Group Based Approval First''
a) Group members submitted ideas will be in the 'Pending Approval' stage.
b) Ideas should be first approved by the Group Moderator. Global and Campaign moderators can not see the idea until the Group Moderator approved it.
c) The idea will go for the next approval to Global Moderator and Campaign Moderator after approving by Group Moderator.
d) After that, the Idea will be visible in the community for all.
When Strict Approval is "ON" and
Approval Order is 'Campaign Based Approval First''
a) Group members submitted ideas will be in the 'Pending Approval' stage.
b) Ideas should be first approved by the Global Moderator or Campaign. Global and Campaign moderators can not see the idea until the Group Moderator approved it.
c) The idea will go for the next approval to Global Moderator and Campaign Moderator after approving by Group Moderator.
d) After that, the Idea will be visible in the community for all.
