# Add Request Changes to a demand

# Add Request Changes to a demand {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated March 12, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
As a demand manager, you might create a request change as the outcome of the action
taken to resolve an issue or mitigate a risk. The request change might result in changing
the demand's scope, resource requirement, cost, or schedule to minimize the impact of a risk
or issue.

## Before you begin

Role required: it_demand_manager

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllDemandDemandsAll.
2. Select the demand to which you want to add a request change.
3. From the Request Changes related list, select New.
4. On the Request Change form, fill in the fields.  
   For a description of the field names, see [Request change form](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/LGXVLylDqkN~kUtYsqqloQ "Use the request change form to change the metrics of a demand, such as demand scope, resource requirement, cost, or schedule.").
5. Select Submit.

## What to do next

Associate the request change with your existing risk, issue, decision, and action
records so you can track dependencies and recognize trends for future. For more
information, see [Associate existing RIDAC records for a demand](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/RnGaN~IvCVtLU781sEmK3g "Link existing RIDAC records (risks, issues, actions, decisions, and request changes) to one another for your demand. Associating RIDAC records with each other enables you to keep a record of risks or issues and their outcome for analysis at demand closure and planning. It also helps to track the risks and issues throughout the demand life cycle.").
