Change Enablement

The mission of the IT change enablement is to implement changes in the most efficient way while minimizing the negative impact on customers when the changes are being implemented.

In SimpleOne, a change enablement is a process of suggesting, discussing, planning, and implementing a change. The solution provides a set of fields, states with predefined transitions, notifications, and logic. The following articles provide detailed information about change requests.

note

The Change Requests (itsm_change_request) and Change Tasks (itsm_change_task) tables are inherited from the ITSM Tasks (itsm_task) table that is a parent table for all ticket and task tables. The ITSM Tasks are, in their turn, based on the Task (task) table of the platform.

Change Types and State Models


Depending on the change type, change requests have different state transitions, and different algorithms will be adopted to implement the change. From this article, you will learn about the state model for standard, normal, and emergency changes.
