4/20
A User calls the Service Desk to report an Incident related to the functioning of a Pe. Service Desk staff asks the User to reboot the PC to see if the Incident could be quickly resolved. As such, “reboot” can be considered and used as a Workaround for many PC related incidents. To record this Workaround in the Known-error database, the following is a suggested procedure:
- Service Desk staff records this Workaround in the Incident record
- Incident Management will record the Workaround in the Known-error database and inform the Workaround and the associated Incident records to Problem Management
- Problem Management will further analyze the incidents and the Workaround to find a permanent solution.
What is wrong in this procedure?
- Problem Management will record the Workaround in the Known-error database and not the Incident Manager.
- Service Desk staff should be able to record the Workaround in the Known-error database directly and need not have to wait for the Incident Manager to record it.
- The Workaround is not analyzed by Problem Management before it is recorded in the Known-error database.
