  Key Concepts: 
  A Change Request is a request for a change to an existing SAP system. It is used to document and track changes to the system, such as modifications to existing functionality or the addition of new features. The Change Request Management component of SAP Solution Manager is used to manage and track change requests. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Change Requests can be created in the Change Request Management component of SAP Solution Manager. The requestor must provide details about the change, such as the type of change, the reason for the change, and any other relevant information. Once the request is submitted, it is reviewed by an authorized user who can approve or reject the request. If approved, the change is implemented in the system. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a Change Request, it is important to provide as much detail as possible so that it can be reviewed and approved quickly. It is also important to ensure that all stakeholders are aware of the change and that they are given an opportunity to provide feedback before it is implemented.
