Standard Change (process ST 2.2)

A Standard Change is a pre-authorized change that follows a standard procedure; for example, a password reset or the provision of standard equipment to a new employee. Standard Change uses the Change Model configured in the system which can pre-populate the information in the Change ticket on registering the Change.

For an activity to be accepted as a Standard Change, the following requirements must be met:

The documented tasks must be commonly known and proven
Authority will be given in advance based on predetermined criteria
The chain of events can be initiated by a functional Service Desk
Budgetary approval will typically be predetermined or within the control of the Change Requester

The following figure depicts the Standard Change workflow in Process Designer.

For details of the Standard Change process, see the following figure and table.
