Create a Change Request
You can create a change request from the Cost Saving Opportunities page. Change requests can be submitted to ServiceNow or Jira for both idle resource and right-sizing recommendations.
About This Task

The change request button only displays when a valid recommendation is available.

A data source must be configured in Virtana Platform.
Steps
