Creating a Windchill Change Request
In response to one or more problems, you can create a change request in the Windchill BOM. A change request details the changes necessary to correct the problem or provide the enhancement. The appropriate people can then make the business decision to proceed with or cancel the proposed change.
To create a change request:
1. In the Problems table, select the problem for which you want to create a change request.
2. Right-click the problem and select Create Change Request. If account log-in information is requested, supply it. The New Change Request window opens.
3. Complete this window. For more information, click the help button in the upper right corner of the window. The “Creating a Change Request” topic in the Windchill Help Center.
If the problem’s associated incidents were tied to parts imported from a Windchill BOM, the original Windchill parts are associated with the new change object as affected items. If any of the affected Windchill parts are end items, they are associated with the new change object as affected end items and listed in the Affected End Items table. End items are top-level items in system trees.
