Description

Description

When a Change Request (CR) is initialized in a certain system, a message should be sent in that system's channel confirming that the CR was iniitialized.

Acceptance Criteria
  • When any CR is initialized in a system, a message is sent in that system's channel with relevant information
  • No other functionalities are affected
  • the UI is not affected
Proposed Solution

Find the function that handles the initialization of CRs, and add this functionality into that. If you are unsure of how to implement this functionality, check out how slack messages are sent in other parts of the website.

Research direction

Start by locating the function that handles Change Request initialization, then read the existing Slack-message implementations elsewhere in the website. Add a confirmation message to the initialized CR's system channel without changing the UI or other functionality. Verify that every CR initialization sends relevant information to the correct channel.
