Closure
The life cycle of any release process, be it a completed or a canceled one, ends with the closure stage.
In this stage, the release coordinator associates a closure code for the release. The closure code provides details on whether the release is closed due to cancellation, rejection, completion, or other reasons.
Only users with permission to approve the release closure can close the release.
To add and view the closure code and its details,
- Go to Releases.
- Choose all or a specific customer from the drop-down in the header.
- Go to the details page of the required release.
- Click Closure on the left pane.
The following tabs are displayed on the canvas:
- Details:
- Associate a closure code for the release. SDAdmin can create custom closure codes under Setup > Customization > Release Management > Closure Code.
- Describe the closure process in detail.
- Attach the necessary files.
- Tasks: Add, edit, organize, delete, pick up, trigger, and close release tasks, assign owners to the unassigned tasks, and configure task dependencies. Learn more.
- Notes: Provide closure-related additional information. You can also add deployment notes via conversations.
- Approvals: Define approvers for various approval levels required to close the release. Learn more.
- Status Comments: View all closure status comments provided in the release form.
