For a detailed explanation of workflows and their role within the process model, please refer to the Introduction.

Create/Maintain Module Release Note		status: valid
tags: release_management version: 1 contains: gd_guidl__rel_management, gd_temp__rel_mod_rel_note has: doc_concept__rel_process, doc_getstrt__release_process needs input: wp__module_safety_package, wp__module_sw_release_plan, wp__verification_module_ver_report outputs: wp__module_sw_release_note responsible: rl__committer approved by: rl__project_lead satisfied by: gd_req__config_baseline_diff, gd_req__config_workproducts_storage, gd_req__release_note
The module release note is created for each release by the committer acting as the module lead. It may be updated later in case of bugs are found after the release is published.

The module user manual is created and maintained by the committer acting as the module lead for each release of the module.
wf__rel_mod_user_manual		Workflow

Verify/Approve Module Release		status: valid
tags: release_management version: 2 contains: gd_guidl__rel_management, gd_temp__rel_mod_rel_note has: doc_concept__quality_process, doc_concept__rel_process, doc_getstrt__quality_process, doc_getstrt__release_process needs input: wp__module_sw_release_plan, wp__qms_report, wp__verification_module_ver_report outputs: wp__module_sw_release_note responsible: rl__release_team approved by: rl__project_lead, rl__quality_manager
The module release is verified and approved. This confirms that the process conformance check (Execute Feature Contributio...) has been performed, as documented in Quality report, and that the required work product reviews (Execute Work Product Reviews) have been completed and passed, as documented in Module Verification Report.
