    Change Category is a feature of SAP Solution Manager that allows users to classify and categorize changes made to the system. It helps users to identify and track changes, as well as to analyze the impact of changes on the system. Change Categories are used to group changes into logical categories, such as functional, technical, or security-related. 
    
    How to use it: 
    Change Categories can be used in SAP Solution Manager to classify and categorize changes made to the system. To use Change Categories, users must first create a Change Category in the Change Category Maintenance screen. Once created, users can assign a Change Category to each change made in the system. This will help users identify and track changes, as well as analyze the impact of changes on the system.

    When creating Change Categories, it is important to consider how they will be used in the system.
