Closing Change
This functionality allows closing the change, explaining all the facts that have occurred in the lifecycle of the change, thus favoring the reexamination and inspection of the change created in order to reduce costs and risks for the organization.
Before getting started
It is necessary the pre-existence of a change.
Procedure
- Access the main menu Processes > Change Management > Change;
- Find the change you want to plan the activity, and click on "Open" and then on "Reversion Plan”;
- In the "Review" tab, it is necessary to select the option that defines if the change was successfully done;
- It will be possible to create a Kanban to manage the activities registered. Just click on "+Workspace" and complete the data available, for example: title, select the user or group responsible for the task execution, and others. It is also allowed to link a Kanban already created by clicking in on the other button related to the "Workspace".
✅ Rule: When linking an existing Kanban, if the user does not have permission to access a particular Workspace, the system will display a message informing it. The user must then request permission in Workspace and Sprint or create a new Kanban framework.
5. It is also possible to link incidents, problems, lessons learned (which are knowledge about the change made), and file attachments to detail the change execution. To do so, it is necessary to click on the available tab and select the item you want to link to the change.
6. Click on the "More" tab and then on "Closure" to register the data about the change execution, for example, solution category, the status of change, and others. On the same tab, but in the "Notes" option, there is a field available for entering relevant information to this phase of the flow.
7. Click on "Options" and then on "Save and keep current task" to register the planning activities or select "Save and advance flow" to facilitate the task and send it to the next phase of the flow.
