Automation Hub User Guide
You can submit a change request for an automation that is already live or even for one that is still in implementation. The change request is particularly useful for small changes that do not require a completely new automation. For example, when the process has changed and the flow needs to be adjusted. Or, when you want to suggest an improvement for an automation, or to report a bug.
To submit a change request for any automation idea that you can view in the Automation Hub instance, you need to have the Submit a change request permission. When you have this permission assigned, the Submit a change request option after pressing the Submit new button.
There is no separate default system role available for the Submit a Change request function. By default, the Submit a change request permission is assigned to users who have the Account owner, System Admin or Program Manager role.
Collaborators
To be able to submit a change request for any idea or automation for which you are a collaborator, you need to have the Submit a change request for an idea or automation permission assigned. By default, the Process Owner collaborator role has this permission assigned. A user with System Admin role can decide which collaborator roles need to have this permission assigned and perform changes as needed in the Manage Access > Roles > Collaborator Roles page.
As a collaborator, you can submit a change request from the actions bar at the bottom of the Automation Profile page or from the Change Requests tab.
After submitting a change request, you are automatically assigned with the Change Request Submitter collaborator role for that specific change request.
To submit a change request, you must complete the Submit a Change Request form.
By default, the Submit a Change Request form consists of the following assessments:
-
Overview
-
Change Request assessment that includes by default the sections below:
See the illustration below.
The Overview assessment part of the Submit a Change Request form is the same assessment part of the other submission forms. The Change Request assessment contains fields that enable you to specify the details for the change request. The Change Request assessment can be customized, which means that it can be adapted to your organizations needs. See Customize assessments.
Overview
In the first section of the form, the Overview, you can Name your Idea, enter an Automation ID, and add a description about the process in the Description field. The Business Area, the Category, and Sub-Category are already selected and inherited from the parent idea. If needed, you can modify the categories from the drop-down lists.
In the Pain Points field you can add a detailed description of the issues that the automation change aims to solve. For example, describe the inconvenience, or time consumption that affects the person(s) who have to execute the task or process. In the Negative impact field you can add a description of how the task or process affects the enterprise.
