3.3 Dual Authorization

This topic explains the process of Dual Authorization in the system.

After creation or modification of maintenance records belonging to a function, for which Dual authorization has been enabled, an intermediate verifier (First Authorizer) has to verify the record before the record can be actually authorized. Only after the first authorization, system allows you to actually authorize the record.

The first level authorization is done using the First Verification screen.
