You can use this function if you want to manage your changes in your solution landscape using Change Request Management independently of transport management. This function is available for continual cycles and for phase cycles.

You create a change cycle and assign a change control landscape and a branch to it. When the cycle is in the “Created” phase, you assign it to a general change or an administrative change, and change the solution documentation within this document.

When assigning a change cycle to a change transaction, you can search for change cycles with or without task lists.
