Approval Users

Approval users are maintained in TE in the target system properties.

Note: To maintain the same approvers across a number of target systems use the target mass maintenance function.

Inbox Approvers
Here you specify those people who can approve changes into the target, from the target’s inbox, or approve the transporting of changes from the target’s pending queue.

Approvers can be authorised to approve any change request or only those assigned to particular groups.

To add an approver, select either a specific group or All Groups and then click the Add button to choose an approver from the list of users in the domain controller SAP system.

Set the Minimum number of approvals required to the number of approvers that must approve a change before the change moves to the next location on the transport path, such as from the target’s inbox to its import queue.

Outbox Approvers
Here you specify those people who can approve changes out of the target, from the target’s outbox.

For example, a test manager may wish to prevent the flow of changes into the production system until satisfied that appropriate levels of testing have been performed.

Approvers can be authorised to approve any change request or only those assigned to particular groups.

To add an approver, select either a specific group or All Groups and then click the Add button to choose an approver from the list of users in the domain controller SAP system.

Set the Minimum number of approvals required to the number of approvers that must approve a change before the change moves from the target’s outbox to the next targets, as per the transport path configuration.
