View Change Report

This report displays the changes to CIs or relationships, in a selected view. This can help with possible troubleshooting issues related to these CIs. For example, the changes in a CI may enable you to conclude that these changes are the cause of the problem. By the same token, the source of the troubleshooting issue could be related to expected changes which failed to occur.
