Managing Asset Alter Submissions


EnOS Onboarding Tool supports secondary confirmation for specified asset changes. After the system administrator specifies the asset type and reviewer, the asset manager creates or updates the asset type in the access tool and needs to submit a change request. After the request is approved, the change takes effect.

Operation Process


The asset change process is as follows:

  1. The submitter creates or updates the asset in the Site Onboarding. If it is not a specified type of asset, the change will take effect immediately. If it is a specified type of asset, a change request must be submitted.
  2. After submitting the changes, the submission begins to be processed, and the asset status will be updated to Processing, which does not support editing.
  3. The submitter can withdraw the submission in Asset Alter List > My submission. After withdrawal, the asset change will not take effect, and the asset status will be updated to Withdrawn. The process ends and the asset can be edited and submitted again.
  4. The reviewer approves or rejects the submission in Asset Alter List > Review Submissions. If rejected, the asset status will be updated to Rejected, and can be edited and submitted again.
  5. After the submission is approved, the change will be executed automatically. During the execution, the asset cannot be edited. The asset status will be updated to Processed.
  6. After the change is successfully executed, the change will take effect and the submission will be automatically closed. The asset status will be updated to Closed, and the process will end.
  7. If the change execution fails, the asset status will be updated to Error. The reviewer can choose Retry to re-execute the change. The submitter or reviewer can directly close the submission, and the asset status will be updated to Closed, and the process will end.
