Approving Change by the Change Manager

     

    Only the Change Manager has the authority to approve the change. Any technician with the SDChangeManager role is a change manager.  

     

    Once the change is recommended by the CAB members the Change Manager should Approve or Reject the change. Except for the Standard Change type all other change type should be approved the change manager. The standard change type is a pre-approved change type hence it does not require any approval from the change manager. Only the approved changes will be taken-up by the technician to whom the change is assigned.
