* Updated May 20, 2026
* 
* ![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read

From a remediation task (VUL, AVUL, CVUL, or CRG), create a change request. Alternatively, add a remediation task to an existing change request.

## Before you begin

Role required:

* sn_vul.remediation_owner for host vulnerable items (VITs)
* sn_vul.app_security_champion for application vulnerable items (AVITs)
* sn_vul_container.remediation_owner for container vulnerable items (CVITs)
* sn_vulc.remediation_owner for configuration test results (CTRs)
{#sem-ws-CRs__ul_c3c_4vb_dbc}  
Note:  
The itil role is required if you want to submit change requests from the Remediation view.

## About this task

For more information about the change requests and creating change requests from the classic environment, see [Change management for Vulnerability Response](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/rJLLQMfetmDSSTGbuH_CNw "As an IT remediation owner, you can create and manage change requests (CHG) directly from remediation tasks (RT) in the Vulnerability Response application. Change requests help you initiate and track change activities on your assets so that you can remediate your remediation tasks and their corresponding vulnerable items.").  
Note:  
The Create Change and Add to existing change options are available only when the ITSM Advanced plugin is enabled on your instance. If you have migrated to an ITSM AI Native SKU without ITSM Advanced, upgrade to ITSM Advanced SKU to restore access.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to WorkspacesSecurity Exposure ManagementRemediation.
2. Open a remediation task (VUL, AVUL, CVUL, or CRG) that you want to create a change request for.
3. Select Create Change to create a change request.
   1. Fill in the fields on the change request form.  
      For information on the form fields, see [Create change request form fields](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/8ZgOz6nzYJNdxjXMXJ8nmw "The following table shows the fields and their description in the Create change request form.").
   2. Select Create Change Request.

When you submit the change and it is implemented, if state synchronization is enabled, the remediation task automatically moves to Resolved. For more information about states and state
synchronization in change requests, see [Create a change request from a remediation task](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/OjuoB~sGWt5dy~mepam6RQ "As an IT remediation owner, create a change request (CHG) directly from a remediation task (VUL) for all the vulnerable items in the group. Create a change request with pre-populated information that includes the preferred solution to expedite your investigation for vulnerabilities that require manual intervention.").
