About Stakeholders

A stakeholder is an employee who might have a stake in the outcome of a record or approval. Stakeholders are commonly used for releases and budgets. Stakeholders work with the approval board to ensure that approved processes are implemented. Stakeholders might also have other functions, such as ensuring a back-out plan is in place or that the rollout into the live environment will have the least possible risk and negative impact, in the case of a release.

There is no approval process by default for stakeholders.
