Yes ! or atleast it seems that way here. We've gone from complete freedom to no changes without the appropriate documentation and approval overnight. All changes must be user requested. Even if I know there is a bug, I can't just go quick fix it. I have to actually go out to a user and ask them to request it to their boss who makes the entry in PRC. The helpdesk elevates it to IT/Development director, then it can be fixed. In turn if it's a major issue where the AR is getting botched up daily, it could take a while to get to it, in turn making the problem worse. Then prove that the changes were made and approved before making it into production. On top of it all auditing every other month to make sure this protocal is followed to the "T". And it's just starting here. It all comes down to placing the blame and covering each ones bum from a law suit. The whole process stinks, but is for our own good in the long run. Especially in the world where people will cook the books and point there finger at you. ------- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
