Run Impact Analysis on a change request

Before implementing a change request, you can determine its impact on related downstream items.

  1. In Single Item View, select Change Request to open the bottom panel with a list of associated change requests.

  2. Select the item you want to know more about, then select Actions > Impact Analysis.

    Actions menu includes Impact Analysis option.

    The Impact Analysis is displayed as a highlighted table, listing all items directly associated with the change request. Also, any items that are downstream from directly associated items are shown with their degree of separation from that item.

    Example Impact Analysis lists items associated with a change request.

Jama Connect provides visibility of the potential impact of a change request. The impact is then used to determine if any impacted items need to be updated.
