Lifecycle Management

Set a flag for the state "Approved"

  In the Change Management module an object has to pass the state "Approved" before it can be released. According to this rule, a flag for "Approved" was introduced to the Progress Indicator of the Release Management module.
  The flag settings are listed at the Progress Indicators tab (Manager > Lifecycles > Lookup Values).

  In the graphic above, the flag for "approved" is activated for the progress indicator 220 - Approved. This indicates that an object can only be released if it is in state 220 - Approved.
It is not required to add the state "Approved" to a lifecycle. Any of the listed progress indicators can be marked to represent an "approved" state.
  It is also possible to create a new progress indicator (e.g. "Corrected") and mark it as an "approved" state. In this case an object can only be released when it is in state "Corrected". The system will not check the indicator but the flag settings.
  It is also possible to mark any state to represent a "Released", "Revisioned" (Revisioning) or a "Withdrawn" state.
