Prioritizing review processes

Covers when and how to prioritize review and policy processes for a community.

About this task

Note: This topic describes functions that are supported, but no longer recommended as of Rational® Asset Manager, Version 7.2. If you used policy processes and review processes prior to V7.2, you can still access and manage them. However, you cannot create new review processes unless they are using Rational ClearQuest®. Instead, create custom lifecycles with the Rational Asset Manager web interface to manage the development of assets on your repository. For more information, see Asset lifecycle and development and Creating master lifecycles.

Because reviews are can be optionally scoped to specific asset types and categories, an asset may be subject to multiple review processes. Prioritizing the review process allows user to view the various types of defined review processes in a specific order. You must order the review processes in decreasing priority, where the first review process to match the minimum set of conditions will be selected for an asset. By ordering the review processes in this manner, users see the least restrictive review process for a specific asset type listed first and can view the other review processes listed in a logical order. You can change the priority of the review processes at any time.
