Your Change Management Data Template

This extraction is configured through the Cherwell Search Manager UI, not a single script. Below are the configurations for the two required searches.

**Search 1: ProcessMind - Change Creation**

*   **Business Object**: `Change Request`
*   **Search Criteria**:
    *   `Change Request.CreatedDateTime` between `[Specify Start Date]` and `[Specify End Date]`
*   **Grid Columns (Fields to Return)**:
    1.  `ChangeRequestId`: `Change Request.ChangeID`
    2.  `ActivityName`: Custom Expression -> `'Change Request Created'`
    3.  `EventTime`: `Change Request.CreatedDateTime`
    4.  `SourceSystem`: Custom Expression -> `'Ivanti Cherwell'`
    5.  `LastDataUpdate`: Custom Expression -> `SystemFunctions.CurrentDateTime()`
    6.  `ChangeStatus`: `Change Request.Status`
    7.  `ChangeType`: `Change Request.ChangeType`
    8.  `ChangeOwner`: `Change Request.OwnedBy`
    9.  `ChangeTeam`: `Change Request.OwnedByTeam`
    10. `ChangeRiskLevel`: `Change Request.Risk`
    11. `TargetCompletionDate`: `Change Request.ProposedEndDate`

**Search 2: ProcessMind - Change Status History**

*   **Business Object**: `Change Request Journal - History`
*   **Search Criteria**:
    *   `Change Request Journal - History.FieldName` equals `Status`
    *   `Change Request Journal - History.CreatedDateTime` between `[Specify Start Date]` and `[Specify End Date]`
*   **Grid Columns (Fields to Return)**:
    1.  `ChangeRequestId`: `Change Request.ChangeID` (from related Change Request)
    2.  `ActivityName`: Custom Expression -> Case expression on `Change Request Journal - History.NewValue`:
        ```
        CASE NewValue
          WHEN 'Assessing' THEN 'Change Submitted For Assessment'
          WHEN 'Awaiting Approval' THEN 'Impact and Risk Assessed'
          WHEN 'Pending Approval' THEN 'Change Awaiting Approval' -- Or 'Awaiting CAB' based on your config
          WHEN 'Approved' THEN 'Change Approved by CAB'
          WHEN 'Rejected' THEN 'Change Rejected'
          WHEN 'Scheduled' THEN 'Implementation Plan Developed' -- Assumes planning is done when status moves to Scheduled
          WHEN 'Scheduled' THEN 'Change Scheduled' -- Note: Two activities map to this status change. Create two case statements if needed or choose one.
          WHEN 'In Progress' THEN 'Change Implementation Started'
          WHEN 'Implemented' THEN 'Change Implemented'
          WHEN 'Verification' THEN 'Change Verification Performed'
          WHEN 'Post Implementation Review' THEN 'Post-Implementation Review Conducted'
          WHEN 'Closed' THEN 'Change Closed'
          WHEN 'Cancelled' THEN 'Change Cancelled'
          ELSE NULL
        END
        ```
    3.  `EventTime`: `Change Request Journal - History.CreatedDateTime`
    4.  `SourceSystem`: Custom Expression -> `'Ivanti Cherwell'`
    5.  `LastDataUpdate`: Custom Expression -> `SystemFunctions.CurrentDateTime()`
    6.  `ChangeStatus`: `Change Request.Status` (from related Change Request)
    7.  `ChangeType`: `Change Request.ChangeType` (from related Change Request)
    8.  `ChangeOwner`: `Change Request.OwnedBy` (from related Change Request)
    9.  `ChangeTeam`: `Change Request.OwnedByTeam` (from related Change Request)
    10. `ChangeRiskLevel`: `Change Request.Risk` (from related Change Request)
    11. `TargetCompletionDate`: `Change Request.ProposedEndDate` (from related Change Request)
