Field	Description	For More Information
Add Existing	Search for and select existing objects to add as proposed changes. Items that you add also appear at the CR/CO Proposed Change level. You can add configured objects from the CO proposed changes page only if applicability is defined for the CA. You can add an object as proposed change to multiple change objects if the object is not change controlled by another change action.	Predefined Queries
Change Assessment	Add all related items to the selected object. This command can be used only on one selected object. Change assessments can be performed for COs and CRs.	Change Assessment
Remove	Remove the proposed changes from the change object. This does not delete the items from the database. Removing a proposed change from a CR or CO does not delete any CAs that may be attached. When an object is removed from a change object, the system checks whether any approved markups are associated with the objectt and change. If so, the disconnection is blocked and the disconnection also deletes these markups. Note: You cannot remove configured objects from a CA with applicability using the Remove command. Note: You cannot remove a proposed change that a change action has already processed.	-
Move To	The options under this command let you move one or more selected items to an existing or new change object. This allows proposed changes to split to another CA (either existing or new) related to the parent CO. In the CR or CO Proposed Changes tab, you can move the selected item to either a new or existing CR or CA. These options are available only before the In Work state of the context change order in In Process CO state of the change request. Note: Selected proposed changes must be mapped to the same responsible organization.	Predefined Queries Creating a Change Order Creating a Change Request.
