The Release Manager’s role is to handle custom updates. Custom updates can be run at any time, but not more than once per day. The custom update will contain any custom records that have been APPROVED or DELETED since the previous custom update and can be for any of the five main PECS concepts (Dose Range, Drug Pairs, Drug-Drug Interaction, Duplicate Therapy, and Professional Monograph).
Release Managers can search for and view records but they are not allowed to create or approve customizations. They run custom updates at the instruction of the PECS Administrator and/or the National Drug File (NDF) Support Group. They will send an Outlook email to the PECS Administrators after the update has been created.
In addition to the Home tab, users with the Approver role see the following tabs on their Home page:
