Creating an approval profile for resource balancing
You use an Approval Profile document to create a set of approvers. Then you can assign the approval profile to one or more resource-balancing plans. You can include users and groups as members of an approval profile. However, if you list a group as a profile member, only one group member must approve the plan. For example, if you move a database that is used by the marketing group, you may want one user, but not all, to approve the plan. If you want all members of a group to approve a plan, enter each user's name in the approval profile.

Changes to the Approval Profile document are tracked for you and listed in the Creation and Modifications section.
