Hi I require your assistance please. I don't really work with the Change management module thus I am a bit in the dark here, asking this question.
We have occasions where people will do a change in production and then 3hours later, they want to log the change and resolve it etc. According to what I found in the documentation these changes can be logged as a Latent Change and will then close automatically. We can use this but it is not always the case and sometimes for record purposes we still require people to approve. People log tickets as an emergency in these situations and because this was logged as an emergency we cannot close the ticket because it was logged after the actual start dates. First we get a message, telling us it will be saved to Expedited because the Requested Date is before the earliest Start Date. I will save it as expedited, enter the times for actual start/end date. Then it will tell me, Only Latent changes can have actual start dates that come after the infrastructure change submit date. At this point we have values in "Earliest Start Date" and "Submitted Date" If we try to save the timing field to latent we just receive ARNOTE again telling us it will be saved to Expedited because the Requested Date is before the earliest Start Date. We are not able to close this change with the correct times now, what can we do with these situations?
