(Brad, I'm not a member of the AgileModeling or XPE2e lists. Please cross post.) ... Sure, here's two: 1) Hierarchical CR's. Create two Change Requests (CRs)....
Thinking about the divided CR's got me to thinking about some CM patterns: 1. Separate Call-Tracking, Bug-Tracking, and Change-Tracking. 2. Track changes in...
Do you know which tools support hierarchical CRs? We have an in house solution that has out lived it's usefulness, but need this type of support in an vendor...

Hello Brooke, Serena's Dimensions is one tool that supports hierarchical CRs. We haven't started using that feature here yet but I plan to implement that...
