Add manager_approved and eoc_approved to C1 and C2 criticalities
Why is this change being made?
C1 and C2 Change criticalities requires both Management Approval and EOC approval. The current process is unclear in which format the Management Approval should be given. This approval is usually given via a comment or applying the manager_approved
label. The EOC process is different and requires written approval on both Slack and the issue.
This MR provides a more unified way of approving both Management and EOC. It makes the process more prescriptive, explicitly stating the requirement of having the manager_approved
label and the eoc_approved
label on the Change Request issue to provide the approvals while preserving the log trail requirement needed for compliance reasons.
