The change request process allows the caller to be informed about the work progress.
In SimpleOne, this process is implemented as Notifications sent by email. Notifications delivered "out-of-the-box" are described below:
| Notification | Description | Target Auditory |
|---|---|---|
| Change request is created | This notification is sent after the change request is just created and registered. | Change Manager |
| Change request is completed | This notification is sent after the change request state changes to Completed. | Change Manager |
| Change request is assigned | This notification is sent after the change request is assigned to a responsible group or person. | Follower, Assigned User, Assignment Group |
| Change request is scheduled | This notification is sent after the change request state changes to Scheduled. | Follower, Assigned User |
| Change request requires authorization | This notification is sent after the change request state changes to Authorization. | Follower, Assigned User |
| Change request authorization rejected | This notification is sent after the change request authorization failed (request state changes to Registered). | Follower, Assigned User |
| New comment is added | This notification is sent after the change request has additional comments. | Follower, Assigned User |
| Change request requires authorization | This notification is sent after the change request state changes to Authorization. | Approvers |
| Change request has been authorized | This notification is sent after the change request has been successfully authorized (state changes to Scheduled). | Approvers |
