Once a workflow is created within IT-Conductor ChAI, an immediate alert is triggered. This alert, sent via email, ensures that relevant stakeholders are informed promptly about the initiation of a new SAP Transport Request. Timely notifications mean that no request goes unnoticed, ensuring timely interventions and actions.

When a transport request is up for approval, the designated approver receives an alert notifying them of the pending action. This notification is not just a prompt but also contains a direct link to IT-Conductor ChAI.
Upon logging into IT-Conductor, the approver is presented with a comprehensive overview of the transport request, enabling them to make informed decisions. In this option, they have the flexibility to either approve or decline the transport request.
