WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why ppm_change_request_approve needs a policy

Approving a change request and creating a baseline snapshot is a state transition that modifies project data reversibly. While it affects project records, it does not delete or destroy data (Destructive), does not execute arbitrary code (Execute), does not move money (Financial), and does not merely retrieve information (Read). The 'creates a baseline snapshot' action confirms it writes/creates new data.

From the tool's definition Tool creates a baseline snapshot when approving a change request. The word 'creates' indicates data modification that is reversible (the snapshot can be managed and changes can be tracked through workflow).
