Mark a change as Review Required

User Roles: Change Manager, Change Coordinator

When a Normal or Emergency change moves to the Risk and Impact Analysis phase or a Standard change moves to the Plan and Schedule phase, you can mark the change as review required by selecting a Review Required check box.

  • When this option is selected, the change must go through the Post Implementation Review phase of the out-of-box workflow. Additionally, when the change record enters the Post Implementation Review phase, the system automatically sends a notification to the Change Coordinator and Change Manager.
  • When this option is not selected, the change can bypass this review phase.

Note This check box appears in the Risk and Impact Analysis phase or the Plan and Schedule phase, and becomes read-only after this phase.

The following table describes how the Review Required settings affect the change workflows.
