Editing information on the General component
When viewing or editing Change Requests, there are multiple components.
The Change Request General component is where the general or core details of the Change Request are entered and changed.
When the General component is displayed, the General text will be highlighted blue in the Form Navigation Menu Options to indicate this. See Change Request – View/Edit - Form Layout and Navigation for more information on the form.
To access the General Component (if not already displayed)
- If not already done, initiate the edit of a Change Request.
Note* The edit can be invoked from the Change Requests List OR the Contracts - List of all Change Requests and there are also different views that can be set for All Change Requests Lists. See All Change Requests Lists - Views Examples to determine which view is set for the organization, then see the above Suggested Prior Reading for the applicable view and list).
The Change Request View/Edit form displays. See Change Request – View/Edit - Form Layout and Navigation for more information on the form.
- Upon the Edit, the General component is displayed by default but to switch to it, if it is not displayed, click on the General in the Form Navigation Menu Options (in the example below the Schedule of Values component was displayed).

Layout and Navigation of the General Component

The General Component is separated into sections, with each section having a heading highlighted in blue:
- General Information - These are the general details about the Change Request including the Client and Description.
- Additional Information - This section only displays if custom fields have been setup for the Change Request. If no custom fields have been setup, this section does not display.
- Attachments - These are general files associated with the Change Request.
All the details on the Change Request General component can be changed except for the Client which is inherited from the Contract.
Any field marked with an asterisk is a required field (as set by the System Administrator).
If any of the General information is entered or changed, the overall Change Request must be saved to save those changes and the Change Request itself.
