Publish, change, and deprecate standards
Basic standards, reference codes, domain standards, and metric standards have corresponding approval scenarios. Nodes and reviewers are organization-configured.
Request publication
- Filter the appropriate list by Awaiting Review.
- Select business-reviewed objects and Request Publication.
- Verify scope and submit.
- Reviewers inspect and approve/reject through Personal Workspace.
- Check My Requests, then verify the object list status.
Approval sets Published; rejection retains Awaiting Review. Correct rejected content and resubmit. Submission is not publication.
Request a change
Select a published standard and Request Change. Review column references, codes, and dependencies and explain definition impacts. After approval, verify content/status and rerun standards validation on affected metadata.
Request deprecation
Select a published standard and Request Deprecation. Approval sets Deprecated; rejection retains Published. History remains. Define replacement and migration ownership where applicable; deprecation does not automatically replace mappings.
Check both workflow and object
| Location | Check |
|---|---|
| My Requests | Objects, progress, decision |
| Approval tasks | Content, participants, comments |
| Standard list/details | Status, business/technical content |
| Reference Information | Affected columns |
| Automated Standards Validation | Post-change conformance |
For missing tasks, check participants, rights, and deployment. If status remains unchanged, inspect whether approval is still pending. See Approval workflow management.
