Additional notification recipients
It is possible to send notifications about the change request to a custom list of recipients apart from those stated above. To do so, complete the following steps:
- Ensure there is a special group created, or create one. The members of this group will receive the notifications regarding the change request.
- Use the group ID as a value for the system property change_stakeholders.group.id.
| Note |
|---|
Sending notifications to the stakeholders is impossible if, in the Change Authority field on the Change Request form, the Local Authorization option is selected. |
Also, two types of tickets are created for the change request in this case:
| when the change request is completed with a closure code Partially Implemented. | Change Manager, Stakeholders* | |
| Change failed to be implemented | This notification is sent when the change request is completed with a closure code Not Implemented (Rollback). | Change Manager, Stakeholders* |
| Change is canceled | This notification is sent when the change request is completed with a closure code Not Implemented (Canceled) because the change authority (CAB) authorization failed or was canceled. | Change Manager, Stakeholders* |
| Change request post-implementation review | This notification is sent when the change request status changes to Post-Implementation review. | Stakeholders* |
| Change Tasks | ||
| Change task is canceled | This notification is sent when a change task has been canceled. | Assigned User |
| All change tasks are completed | This notification is sent upon completion of all related change tasks. | Change Manager, Assigned User |
| Change task is ready | This notification is sent when a change task has been created or edited. | Assigned User |
| Change task plan is ready | This notification is sent after the associated change task is saved with the Plan Ready checkbox selected. | Assigned User |
*Stakeholders – here: the people who may need or want to track the work on the change request. They are not responsible for any part of the change request workflow. Read the article to see how to add them to the recipients list
non-mandatory – for the members of the group specified in the change_stakeholders.group.id.
