Approving and rejecting demands

When a Demand is in Assessed status, an approval is triggered, and a notification is sent to the stakeholders related to the demand defined as approvers.

Stakeholders evaluate, review, and re-consider the demand based on Cost, Benefits, and the long-term goal for the product.

To approve or reject a demand from the Approval Console

Stakeholders only can approve or reject a demand from the Approval console.

For information about updating an approval request through the Approval console, emails, and  BMC Helix Digital Workplace Advanced client application, see Viewing and responding to approval requests.


Once demand is approved the status is updated automatically to 'Approved' and a new portfolio is created (where all demand requirements are copied), or a new project is created (all demand requirements are copied in the portfolio related). If demand is rejected then demand moves automatically to 'Cancelled' status and status reason 'Rejected by Stakeholders'.
