What action signifies completion of the manual task in a deployment process?

The action that signifies the completion of the manual task in a deployment process is setting the Manual Task deployment step to Complete. This action explicitly indicates that the manual task has been finished, allowing the deployment process to proceed to the next steps.

In deployment workflows, particularly in tools like Copado, manual tasks often require user intervention, such as approval or additional configuration. The completion of these tasks needs to be explicitly marked to ensure that the deployment process recognizes that the necessary manual steps have been taken and that it can continue.

Sending a notification, finalizing connection behavior, or submitting the user story again do not sufficiently indicate that the manual task itself has been finished. Sending a notification may inform others about the status but does not alter the progression of the deployment process. Finalizing connection behavior generally pertains to technical configuration rather than task completion. Likewise, submitting the user story again is more related to the iteration of development and would not directly signify that the previous manual task has been completed.
