![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 3 minutes to read  
Use this dashboard to track the average duration of change requests in the last 30
days.  
Important:  
Starting in Xanadu release, the Core UI Change Velocity dashboard is deprecated. You can use Platform Analytics
[Change Management dashboard](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/z6syAtq28PXLQDEhn7a_uA "The Change Management dashboard provides workflow metrics for successful and failed change requests across different change models and types.") to view, and track the open changes.

The Change Velocity dashboard is divided into the following tabs for effective usage. The ServiceNow®
Performance Analytics capability in the Change Velocity dashboard provides the following
benefits:

* The Current Pipeline tab provides insights into current change activity. The Historical Pipeline tab provides details on trends and patterns associated with the change management process flow. The Process KPIs tab represents a modern set of Change KPIs that are used to evaluate the change process.  
  Figure 1. Change Velocity dashboard view
* The Process Optimization tab provides change activity assessments that are based on the state model. This capability is available only with an ITSM Enterprise subscription. For more information, see [Process Mining](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=process-mining&version=australia&pubname=australia-now-intelligence&ft:locale=en-US).

## Change Velocity dashboard indicators {#change-velocity-dashboard__section_nm4_hk4_2fb}

Change Velocity
:   Average amount of time that changes have been waiting for approval in the last 30 days. To
    generate this data on the dashboard, you must run the Change velocity historical data
    collection job. For information on how to run this job see, [Collect historical data](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=t_RunHistoricalDataCollection&version=australia&pubname=australia-now-intelligence&ft:locale=en-US).

Top Change Success Performers
:   Performance of assignment groups in processing the change request with the highest
    performer on the top. For information on how the performance score is calculated, see [Success Score Calculation](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/r0FU94XwvdGHVxykHSWjUQ "To calculate the success score, formula indicators are provided. These indicators apply the multiplication operation to the data collected by the automated indicators to arrive at the final score.").

Average age of open changes
:   Average amount of time that the change request has been open.

Average close time of changes
:   Average amount of time that it has taken to close the change request.

Average implementation time of closed changes
:   Average amount of time between the start and close date of the change request.
