# Create a standard change request from the catalog

You can create a standard change request from the published standard change catalog templates.

## Before you begin

Role required: itil, admin, or sn\_change\_write

## About this task

A standard change is a repeatable, pre-approved template in the standard change catalog. Change requests created from the standard change template do not require change approval.

To create a change request from a pre-approved template, follow the procedure below.

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Change** > **Standard Change** > **Standard Change Catalog**.

2.  Select one of the following options depending on the type of standard change you want to create.

<table id="choicetable_g1t_3h4_rw"><tbody><tr><td id="d295066e82">

**Network Standard Changes**

</td><td>

Create a standard change request for the network.

</td></tr><tr><td id="d295066e91">

**Server Standard Changes**

</td><td>

Create a standard change request for servers and attached storage.

</td></tr></tbody>
</table>3.  Select a template from the **Items** section.

    For example, **Add network switch to datacenter cabinet** in the **Network Standard Changes** &gt; **Items** section.

    When you select the catalog item, a standard change is created. The Change Request form is displayed with values from the standard change template.

4.  Complete the form with additional information you have.

    For example, add the **Configuration item** and the **Assignment group**.

5.  Open the form context menu and select **Save**.

6.  Complete any information in the related lists that apply to the standard change request.

7.  Select **Update**.


## What to do next

After you create the standard change request, complete the implementation and close the record. To progress and close the change request, see [Process a change request](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/it-service-management/change-management/t_ProcessAChangeRequest.md).
