Hi Everyone,
there is a standard change template, for that template there is a field called category and that filed is empty when i click create standard change button. This is only for few templates, not all the templates. How do I fix it ?

Hi @Akhila P
Has the category field been configured in that template? If it's configured but the value still becomes empty, you need to validate the client script/UI policy scripts. It might be getting cleared because of those scripts.

Siva

Hi @Akhila P,
The Standard change template category might be inactive and hence, will be removed when you click the Create standard change button. You have 3 below solutions to resolve the issue.
- You need to retire the Standard change template
- You can modify a Standard Change Template with correct category
- You can propose a new Standard Change Template.
Thanks,
Sagar Pagar
