Who are Release Record Authorizers and Approvers?

A member who is configured as an Approver by the Administrator has the privilege to Approve, Not Approve or put the Release Record On Hold. For more information about how to configure Additional Approver see, Configuring Additional Approvers. The Release Record (RR) needs to be Authorized before Approval. By default, the Workgroup owner of the selected Workgroup is the Authorizer for a Release Record.

To Approve Release Records:

Select Release > User > Approve Release Records.
On the APPROVE RELEASE RECORDS page, a list of Release Record(s) awaiting your approval is displayed under LIST table.
