Administrative Review is the process by which those applying for a visa can challenge the refusal on the basis that the decision is incorrect due to a case working error. You can make an application for Administrative review either from inside the UK (if you are switching to a Tier 2 Visa) or out-of-country.

If UKVI refuses your Tier 2 (Skilled Worker) Visa, they must issue a written notice concerning your eligibility for Administrative Review. The notice must include or be accompanied by a statement of the reasons for refusal. Information on how to apply for Administrative Review and the time limits for making an application must also be included within the information provided to an applicant by the Home Office.
If you are outside the UK and wish to apply for an Administrative Review of a UKVI decision, you will have 28 days to make the application. If you are applying inside the UK, you have 14 days.
