Severity of incidents Correctly assessing the severity of incidents is key to providing high levels of service. It may be tempting to always select Critical or High however this will result in wasted time and effort on all parties if the incident is not truly required. An initial review of the priority by the Support agent may result in a change in priority which will be communicated with the client. Priority Code S0: Block Issue S1: Critical (impact is externally visible to customers of our client) S2: High Impact (with no workaround) S3: Medium Impact (disruptive workaround available) S4: Light Impact (but workaround available) S5: Low Impact (not impacting users workflow) S6: Assessed, No Impact Description An incident which causes complete system unavailability or that so severely limits functionality or performance that critical business cannot be continued. A Core business function is severely impaired and cannot be used to operate the business workflow. There is no workaround available and the impact is client visible. A Core business function is severely impaired and cannot be used to operate the business workflow. There is no workaround available however the issue will not affect external clients. A business function is impaired but a workaround can be operated. A system flaw that does not impede functionality but is inconvenient. A minor impairment (for instance cosmetic or usability) No incident has occurred the client wishes to record a question or change suggestion. S7: Not Triaged Our response times will be found within your own SLA, however for Priority Codes S0 and S1, which are the highest Priorities within OnTime, we do expect you to respond in an urgent manner to any requests for further information as becomes necessary during the life of the incident.
