Dear Deividi,
we faced a similar problem recently in DSpace 7 and found a way to at
least show the current reviewer's Name. This might help you.
We go to the HAL-Browser/REST-API of our repository and log in with an
administrator account, then look up in the explorer field the following
path:
/server/api/workflow/claimedtasks/search/findAllByItem?uuid=cfc2c83a-9c2f-47aa-bd03-cc3af6f311c4*
*The UUID here is just an example and needs to be replaced with the UUID
of the item you are looking for.
Then it should show you the claimed task in the Response Body where you
can find the Name of the task-owner/current reviewer:
"owner": {
"id": "cfc2c83a-9c2f-47aa-bd03-cc3af6f311c4",
"uuid": "cfc2c83a-9c2f-47aa-bd03-cc3af6f311c4",
"name": "Simon Eiberger",
Kind regards from Germany

Hi everyone,
We are currently running *DSpace 8* and facing a challenge with
workflow management. In certain situations, a reviewer claims an item
for review but takes a prolonged time to complete it, causing
publication delays.
To resolve this issue, we are looking into two specific features
within the Administrator Tasks menu:
1.
*Reverting to Backlog:* A button or action that allows an
*administrator* to send an item currently under review back to the
backlog (pool), making it available for redistribution to another
reviewer.
2.
*Reviewer Identification:* Displaying the *current reviewer's
name* directly in the list of items under review.
We would appreciate any feedback from the community on the following:
*
*DSpace 8 Configuration:* Is there any native configuration in
DSpace 8 that enables returning an item to the backlog or showing
the reviewer's name in this list?
*
*Support in DSpace 9/10:* If this is not possible in DSpace 8, do
*DSpace 9* or *DSpace 10* provide native support for these features?
*
*Custom Solutions:* If there is no native support across these
versions, has anyone implemented a similar workaround, custom
solution, or Pull Request that you would be willing to share?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Best regards,
