Creating a change request to permanently resolve an incident request

If infrastructure change is required to permanently resolve the incident request, assign the incident request to a change coordinator. For information about how to reassign a ticket to a change coordinator, see Assigning-and-reassigning-incident-requests. If you have the correct change management permissions, you can create a change request from the Incident Request form. If you are not sure about your change management permissions, ask your system administrator.
