Connects a Change Context to related change, problem, assessment, item, document, or phase records. It brings the connected scope of work together.
When to use it
The Change Cockpit is the main UI for managing change types and their relationships. Use Change Context when you need to record this connection between the source and target records. Change Context brings related work and product information together.
Records and direction
- Relationship type: Non-structure. Associates records without creating a parent-child hierarchy.
- From: Change Context.
- To: Eligible managed records, including Change Request.
How to use it
- Create the relation with drag and drop in a Structure widget: drag the intended Change Request onto the Change Context it relates to. Choose Change Context, review the direction and any offered values, then confirm.
- Alternatively, use Connect from the source record and select the target with the Change Context relationship.
- Review the resulting connection and the selected record versions where applicable. Check the displayed relationship filters if the connection is not visible.
Example
Seal Improvement Context (Change Context) is connected to Improve Seal Design (Change Request) through Change Context. The association lets readers follow the related information without creating a hierarchy.
Choosing the relationship
Change Context brings related work and product information together. The connected records retain their own purposes and managed processes.
