This will bring you to a new screen where the change is initiated and you can start entering pertinent information.  Some of the fields which are required are already prepopulated.  Others which will need to be filled in are: Service and Summary.  You should also check the Class and Impact fields to make sure those are selected appropriately.  A class of normal means the change will need to be approved at the review and the implementation phase, whereas a class of standard means the change will only need approval at the implementation phase.  An impact level of 4-Minor/Localized will not require any approval (as it is self-approved), but other impact levels will require approval(s) as specific in the approval wiki page.

After entering all of the necessary information, the change can then be sent to the "next-stage", for either review, approval, or implementation, as is appropriate for that particular type of change.  How the change proceeds through the system depends on the class of change and the impact level.  See the approvals wiki page for more info about those aspects of a change request.
