verantwortlich für Freigabe aller PQR’s .. is responsible for approval of all PQR erteilt mit ihrer Unterschrift die Freigabe des entsprechenden PQR .. approves (or authorizes) the corresponding PQR by signigng. erfolgt die Freigabe durch die jeweils zuständige Sachkundige Person .. is approved and released by (literally: the release is effected by ..) Anmerkung: 'approval' und 'release' sind miteinander verzahnte Tätigkeiten. Zuerst muß das Dokument vom Verfasser unterschrieben (signiture) werden und dann dem Chef zur Genehmigung vorgelegt werden, der es durch seine Mit-Unterschrift genehmigt (approval). Durch Veröffenlichung wird es dann freigegeben. Etwas anders ist es bei der Freigabe von Teilen. Diese werden geprüft, ob sie den Anforderungen (die in entsprechenden freigegebenen Anweisungen zu finden sind) entsprechen und durch Unterschrift im Begleitdokument freigegeben werden. Man spricht dann von 'release'.
