Managing ATC Exemptions

ATC exemptions let developers temporarily or permanently mask ATC findings. Developers must apply for exemptions. Exemptions can be granted only by a quality manager — an approver — who has the requiired authorization.

The following sections describe quality manager tasks relating to exemptions:

• Maintain the list of approvers

• Setting up automatic e-mails when requests for exemptions arrive

• Approving or rejecting requests for exemptions

• Replicating exemptions to satellite development systems.
