Hide Control Practices  help

  1. Ensure that documentation—including operational procedures, configuration information, application documentation, help screens and training materials—follows the same change management procedure and is considered to be an integral part of the change.
  2. Consider an appropriate retention period for change documentation and pre- and post-change system and user documentation.
  3. Update business processes for changes in hardware or software to ensure that new or improved functionality is used.
  4. Subject documentation to the same level of testing as the actual change.
