    Change Planning Template

    The planning template should be used for all changes (except system recovery). An HTML link to the change planning template must be placed in the DESCRIPTION field of the Remedy change ticket. The planning template is in Microsoft Word format and should be saved as a Microsoft .DOC or .RTF file in your unit's subdirectory on the CRB web site.

    Note: We have an updated Change Planning Template. Use the new version. If you have questions ask a CRB member. The old template is provided as a backout option should the new template not be sutiable. Questions and comments about the new template should be sent to:
