Modifying change requests - Additional information you can  enter


As you track and supervise a change request, you move it from one stage to another (for example, from Initiate to Review and Authorize). When you choose different stages, messages alert you if you need to complete more fields in the request.

Warning

Important

A request should follow the stages in the recommended life cycle of a change request, as described in Change-request-lifecycle. Manually setting the status values can disrupt the life cycle in which you enter information about and resolve the change request.

To modify change requests

  1. Use one of the following methods to locate the change request:
    • On the Change Management console, select the change request from the Assigned Change table, and click View.
    • Search for the change request.
  2. On the Change form, make the appropriate changes.

    Warning

    Important

    If you want to edit a change request created by another user, make sure that you have the Infrastructure Change Master permissions. For more information, see BMC-Change-Management-permissions.

  3. Use the Process Flow Status area to move the change request from one status to the next, as shown in the following figure:

When you are ready to continue work on the change request, select Resume from the Process Flow Status menu.
