Dataphin:Creating change strategy

Background information

Key aspects of a change strategy:

• Change strategy: Specifies the effective time, applicable platforms, control scope, and validation rules. Changes take effect immediately after you save the strategy.

• Effective time: When you create or modify a strategy, it takes effect immediately and validates subsequent asset changes against the latest rules.

• Management permissions: Only super administrators and system administrators can create change strategies. Strategy owners can also edit and delete their own strategies.

Prerequisites

Make sure you have created change rules before creating a change strategy. For more information, see the referenced document.
