    Before you begin

    Role required: admin or change manager

    You can create decisions to evaluate conditions that reference policy inputs and apply the associated approval definition. To create a decision, perform the following steps:

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to All > Change > Change Policy > Change Approval Policies.
    2. Create a change approval policy or open an existing policy.
      For more information, see Create change approval policy.
    3. In the Policy inputs tab, create a policy input or update an existing record.
      For more information, see Create a decision.
    4. In the Decisions tab, open the default decision record.
    5. Copy and modify the decision record configuration or click New to create a new decision record.
    6. Provide a label in the Label field.
    7. In the Answer field, select an approval definition.
    8. Add any necessary filter conditions using the condition builder.
      These conditions determine the outcome of the policy. For example, to generate approvals at the Assess state that trigger an approval definition when risk is low, set the condition to [Change request.state] [is] [Assess] AND [Change request.Risk] [is] [Low].
    9. Click Submit.
