Automation of change requests management

224 Views

Hi,

I would like to ask is there any way to automate management of change request, for example, to add a job or a task, that will merge all change requests, that were created today into to a new one?

Why do I need that?

For instance, I want to implement a methodology, according to that each code change or bug fix will be placed in different change request and if it is an urgent fix, we could transfer a specific fix from development to production, but if we're talking about some routine change / fix, we could wait for a some milestone in our road map.

This methodology has at least one minus — a very huge amount of change requests and we'll have to deal with all of them and don't forgot any of these change requests. In order to minimize an impact of this minus to the work process I would like to create some job or task that will combine / merge all change requests, that have been created today into a new one at the end of work day. As result we'll receive only 5 change request merges — one for each day.

So I need to find a way how can I access to the list of change requests in SE09 and merge them automatically to a new one, according to the creation date.

Is it possible in general?

Is it a good idea?

How can I implement this logic?

Thanks.
