Change Log

A centralized record that lists all change requests raised during the project and shows the current disposition of each one (e.g., proposed, under review, approved, rejected, implemented, or closed).

Key Points

  • Tracks every change request and its status across the project life cycle.
  • Updated through the integrated change control process; typically managed by the project manager or CCB representative.
  • Provides traceability and audit history, including IDs, dates, requester, description, impact analysis, decision, owner, and notes.
  • Informs updates to baselines and plans and helps align stakeholder expectations.

Example

On a software project, request CR-017 is submitted to add a new dashboard. The project manager records it in the change log with its description, requester, and date. After analysis, the CCB approves it; the log is updated to Approved with the decision date and assigned owner. Once delivered and verified, the status is marked Implemented/Closed.

PMP Example Question

After the change control board approves a scope change, which document should be updated immediately to reflect the decision and assignment for implementation?

  1. Project charter
  2. Change log
  3. Issue log
  4. Lessons learned register

Correct Answer: B - Change log

Explanation: The change log is the authoritative list of change requests and their current status, so it must be updated as decisions are made.
