When scheduling the change request implementing, it is notably to avoid time overlaps, to not affect multiple services or CI's at a time. It is a good practice to follow the rule: "One timeframe - one change request."
To schedule a change request, please complete the following steps:
- In the Planned tab, enter a date and time when the request has to be started and finished processing into the appropriate fields (Planned Start Date and Planned End Date).
- After the request was processed, enter the actual date and time into the appropriate fields (Actual Start and Actual End).
To plan a change request, fill in the following fields in the Planning tab:
- Pre-test Plan - describe the process of pre-implementing testing;
- Change Plan - describe the process of the change request implementing;
- Test Plan - describe the process of post-implementing testing;
- Backout Plan - the plan of activities to rollback the system or service or CI condition to its previous state, in case of failed implementation

Partially Implemented | This state displays that the change request was implemented with some exclusions that do not affect the critical functionality of the service. |
Not Implemented | This state displays that the change request was not implemented. |
Cancelled | This state displays that the change request was cancelled because of authorization failed or cancelled by the caller. |
Backout | This state displays that the change request implementation was not successful, and the previous state of service (or CI) was restored. |
