Request the Minimum Protection and Expansion

When scoping objects, request the minimum protection and expansion needed to accomplish your task. For example, do not request full expansion unless it is required for the task. Do not request Delete protection for a scoping object unless you need to delete a component. Any other subset that needs the object will get it with only Read protection. Avoid requesting Modify protection when Access works as well.

Business Value

Minimize potential conflict over objects that may be shared across subsets by requesting the minimum protection and expansion needed to accomplish your task.
