Creating a New Change Action

The steps to create a Change Action are as follows:

1. As a member of Change Administrators, go to Contents, expand Unified Change Management → Configuration, and select Change Actions. Click Create New Change Action.
2. Enter a Name and Description for the action.

3. On the Applicable To tab, select the item type(s) for which this Change Action is valid.

   

4. Click Done.

Once created, a Change Action can be used as a condition in automations. For example, a validation automation can check whether an affected item with a Revise action is currently in the Released state. The setup and use of Change Actions in automations are managed through automation rules within the Change Process Definition. For more information, see Section 6.2 Manage Automation Rules for a Change Process Definition.
