To Implement a Change Request
When a change request reaches the status of Expedited or Approved, a link and icon for Implement Change Request appears as an Action option in the Task pane. The same option appears on objects that have the status Under Change. It is possible that a change request has been completed without its status having been changed to reflect that fact. In such a case, the icon and link do not appear. The Progress topic in the Content pane shows at all times which components of the change have in fact been implemented.
