    Package Caster Email Notifications – assistance requested

                  

    Problem brief:

    Package Caster needs Email Notification when a Package Approver approves a package, this email prompt will signal the Package Caster to then execute the package.

     

    History of the current process:

    • Package Email Notifications are only generated at the time Package Caster (programmer) creates the package.
    • When this occurs, the Package Approver (manager, analyst) will receive an email notification message: Subject "CASCM for Mainframe PACKAGE REVIEW NOTIFICATION" and body of letter "THE FOLLOWING PACKAGE IS NOW READY FOR YOUR REVIEW/APPROVAL: PSC6PRD2007ES09".
    •  Once the Package Approver approves the package, the package is ready for the Package Caster to submit the approved package for execution.

     

    Problem description and resolution:

    • The Package Caster has not been prompted by an email notification when the Package Approver approved the package.  
    • The Package Caster is burdened with checking the status of his/her package for approval status for the purpose of executing the package.
    • If the Package Caster could be promptly notified by an automatic email generated by the Package Approver, there would be no interruption the package process.
