Change phase and phase on change request

[kunal16]

On a change request form, there are 2 fields: 1. Phase (drop-down field) - choices are Accept, Plan, Build and Requested 2. Phase state (drop-down field) - choices are Approved, Complete, Implementation, On hold, Open, Rejected, Testing, Work in progress What is the user of these two Phase fields on the change request form? Is there any conjunction to the 'State' field? Any leads will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!!

Hi Kunal,

Phase and Phase state field present on change form dependent on the category field.

Phase field is dependent on Category and populate dropdown values based on the category selected.

Phase satate is dependent on the phase field and populated based on the Phase field value.

there is a table change_phase where these entries is getting stored for Phase feild values while we are inserting any new change in system.

Hope this information will be helpful for you.

Mark Correct if it solved your issue or hit Like and Helpful if you find my response worthy.

Thanks,

Hi Narendra, I don't think the field 'Phase' is dependent on category selected on a change request. There used to be BR 'Insert Change Phases' which was auto-adding the change_phase records for the current change. But in geneva it has been made inactive.

As of now, for any change request, 'Phase' will set to 'Requested' by default and 'Phase State' will be 'Open'.

Did you checked dictionary of phase and phase state feild, it is given configured there

Yes I checked that as well, 'Phase' is dependent on 'Category' and 'Phase state' is dependent on 'Phase'. But for all the available 8 Categories, Phase can be Accepted/Build/Plan/Requested.

But I am still not able to understand the significance of the fields Phase and Phase state.
