подвести черту

This is taken from a comment made by a worker about her boss. The meaning of the phrase is given in various dictionaries but it's not clear what the author wants to say. Can anyone explain the use of this phrase as it is used intransitively here?
Thanks!

Comment: "Thanks Ekaterina. In the end I went for something with feedback, my thinking was that a manager reviews a piece of work and outlines his/her response in summary form and suggests areas for improvement. "
