7.2 Confirmation

After users have approved a Pending Approval, the Request itself will automatically move to the next phase of the approval cycle. The next phase can be one of the following

For Parallel Approval Cycle

a) Wait until all other Approvers have acted upon the Improvement Requests.
b) If all Approvers have approved, the EPC Modeler will receive a notification (In their Web App Profile and confirmation email) signaling that the Improvement Request can be published.

For Serial Approval Cycle

a) An Approval Request will be sent to the next Approver in the approval cycle
b) If the final Approvers has approved, the EPC Modeler will receive a notification (In their Web App Profile and confirmation email)

Once an Improvement Request has made it through the Approval Cycle successfully, it is the responsibility of the EPC Modeler to publish the Improvement in the EPC.

New resources (employees) added to roles associated with already published objects will still receive confirmation notifications (by email and in EPC), ensuring that they acknowledge and confirm the objects their role is assigned to with RASCI, without the need to republish. This allows new resources to onboard quickly into their roles and organizations can easily track and report that everyone is aware of critical corporate policies & their respective work procedures to reinforce compliance.
