The Edit Product request screen is used to allow authorized users to manage a request that another user has entered. This same screen is used to manage Addition Requests as well as Modification Requests and the screen is altered a little differently depending on which type of request is being handled.
Most of the tabs on the screens are described in the Edit Product help pages and will not be repeated on this page. Only those additional elements that are not on the Edit Product page will be described here.
A Change Request tab is displayed on the Edit Product Request screen but the tab has no current functionality. It is placed here as a placeholder for when the PPS-L application is deployed.
Pending Modification
The Pending Modification tab shows the changes that were made by a previous user and that the current user, as the approver, is approving. If this is an Addition Request and no modifications have been made to the item since it was requested then this tab will not be visible. This is a table that contains the field name of the value as well as the original and changed values. The fields in the table are listed below:
· Action: This allows the user to change the state of the individual change. The user can change the state to APPROVED, REJECTED or PENDING.
· Field Name: The Name of the attribute.
· Current Value: The original value of the field.
· Requested Value: The modified value of the field.
· Reason: A free text field the user can populate to provide justification. This is optional.
· Request to Modify Field Values: This is a local manager populated field that will not be useful until PPS-L is released.
· Request to Modify Field Editable: This is a local manager populated field that will not be useful until PPS-L is released.
· Requested By: The user who made the original request.
· Requires Second Approval: This is checked if a change to this row requires a second person to review the change.
· Reviewed By: The user who did the previous review.
· Comments: Additional information that can be entered by the user.
