Choice rules follow the change management process as other Windchill objects. Choice rules can be included in promotion requests. You can access the change management information and actions on the Changes tab of the information page of a choice rule. On the rule information page, click Actions > New, and then select the appropriate change management action. Alternatively, you can access the change management actions from the Option Pool or Option Set page, by right-clicking a choice rule in the choice rule table in the right pane, and then selecting the appropriate action.

Out-of-the box, choice rules have a life cycle template with the standard states: In Work, Released, and Canceled.
