Priority Definitions
CRITICAL (Priority 1) – The problem results in extremely serious interruptions to your production system and has affected, or could affect, the entire user community. Tasks that should be executed immediately cannot be executed because of a complete crash of the system or interruptions in main functions of the production system. Data integrity is compromised. The service request requires immediate processing because the problem can result in financial losses.
URGENT (Priority 2) – The problem results in serious interruptions to normal operations, or the issue will negatively impact an enterprise-wide production system rollout. In a production system, important tasks cannot be performed, but the error does not impair essential operations. Processing can still continue in a restricted manner. Data integrity may be at risk. In a development system, the problem hinders deployment. The service request requires timely processing because the malfunction could cause serious interruptions to critical processes or negatively impact business decisions.
IMPORTANT (Priority 3) – The problem causes interruptions in normal operations. It does not prevent operation of a system, or there could be minor degradation in performance. The error is attributed to malfunctioning or incorrect behavior of the software. The issue will affect a pilot or proof-of concept deadline.
MINOR (Priority 4) – The problem results in minimal or no interruptions to normal operations (no business impact). The issue consists of “how to” questions, installation and configuration inquires, enhancement requests or documentation questions.
