All Environments: At Customer Level, use this option to see the open change requests for all the environments across all your services. At Service Level, use this option to see the open change requests for all the environments associated with the selected service. This is the default selection.
Production Environment(s): Use this option to see only the open change requests related to production environments.
Non-Production Environment(s): Use this option to see only the open change requests related to non-production environments.
Individual Environment: Use this option to see both the open and closed change requests related to one of the active environments associated with the selected service, as shown in the Configuration menu. This option is available only on the List view at Service Level.
