PPM Demand Approval

When the information for the Evaluation phase has been completed, the Demand is ready for approval by the identified Stakeholders.

The Approvers for Demands are determined by the Demand area and the Approvers for each Demand are displayed in the Stakeholder tab of the Form Arrangement. Approvers can choose to Approve the Demand, Deny it, or Abstain. Approvers can also choose to Defer the Demand if it has merit but is not appropriate for Portfolio inclusion at the time. Approvers receive an email with the Demand information and the email contains a link to complete the approval. If any of the Stakeholders deny the Demand, the Demand returns to the Evaluate phase and a Journal entry tracks the denied approval.
