Step 2: Assessing Approvals for Each Production Type

Review each Item type on your list, and indicate who gives the approvals, reviews, or notifications before these libraries and members can be updated. You might find yourself dividing some of your Item Types into multiple categories.

For instance, given the above example, you might find:

• JCL: 1 approval
  (Production control supervisor)
• Source programs: 2 approval
  (each project leader)
  (Production control supervisor)
• Executable (payroll): 3 approvals
  (project leader)
  (payroll supervisor)
  (Production control supervisor)
• Executable (other):2 approvals
  (project leader)
  (Production control supervisor)
• Documentation: 1 approval
  (Documentation coordinator)
