Submitting Requests

After a request has been created and saved, the request can be submitted for approval, enrichment, and commitment by other governance users using the workflow model of the request. At least one request item must be added to a request, all required values must be provided, and validations must pass successfully for all request items. After the request has been submitted, the request is moved to the next workflow stage in the workflow model and the request can no longer be edited by the submitting user. Governance users are able to track the progress of requests they submit from the Worklist page.

Caution:

Do not submit a request against a detached version.

To submit a request:

  1. Create a request or open a drafted request.
  2. Click submit button.

Submitted requests proceed through approve, enrich, and commit stages where they are assigned to users for approval. When a request enters a stage, request items in the request are matched to user groups configured for the stage and users in the matching groups have the request assigned to them in that stage. A request can be assigned to multiple users and groups for the same stage concurrently but only one user can claim the request at a time.
