Download and edit is correct. Never make changes in the file in nextcloud.
(The status spreadsheet is the exception.)

When you say "the file is pending" I assume you mean you are still working
on it and will return it to Feedback when you're done. That's good. Don't
forget to add your initials and change the date on the filename. Meanwhile,
it's useful to put a note in the Status spreadsheet, for example your
initials in the "Checked out by" column and perhaps something in the
"Status" column, so we know it's being worked on or that it's ready for
second review. We don't really have a good, unambiguous system in place;
trying to improve it as we go along.

capture, you can see there are two. They look the same in the list, but if
you choose the one highlighted in blue in your image, you'll see that it
comes up differently on the toolbar itself. One has the drop-down arrow;
one does not.
