Request items are used to perform workflow tasks within the context of a governance request. Each request item uses a single workflow task which must be specified when the item is added to a request. The workflow task defines the types of changes to be performed for a hierarchy node in the Data Relationship Management version used by the request.
A request may consist of one or more request items. During Submit or Enrich workflow stages, new request items can be added to a request to perform new tasks. During Enrich stages, request items added in previous stages can be modified or overridden using an Update task assigned to the workflow stage.
Request items can be added manually or loaded from a source file. The order of request items in a request is important because it controls the order that the changes in the request get applied to the target version for validation and commitment purposes.
Request items can only be deleted during workflow stages which have a matching workflow task to the request item.
