Change Request case type
By default, the Change Request case type is the subcase that is created in the first stage of the Revision case type life cycle.
The Change Request case type defines the way that change requests are created, submitted, and resolved. You can modify the stages, steps, processes, or assignments that are part of the Change Request case type to make it simpler or more complex, depending on the business needs.
The primary path in the Change Request case type is represented by the following stages:
Stage | Step | Status | Purpose |
Create | Define Changes | Final | Provide change request details. |
Create Change Request | Final | Create a change request through the designated activity. | |
Open | View Change Request | Available | Review the change request. Optionally, update change request details or withdraw it. |

Approval Required? | Available | Decide whether approval is required. | |
Approve | Approve Changes | Available | View the list of rules for approval. |
Reassign | Reassign CR | Final | View the rules in the change request to assign back to the originator. |
