Where can I find opened CREQs and how do I follow-up on them?

To enable our clients to follow up with the open CREQs they might have we send a weekly report, on Monday morning, called Weekly CREQ In Process. This report can be sent either in pdf or Excel format.

This report enables you to view which requests are opened and at which steps they are currently sitting within our CREQ process. It provides the following information:

• CREQ Number: CREQ number generated by our system
• Client Reference#: used to refer client change request number.
• Criticality*: issue criticality level by SOLABS standard:
  • Urgent: Data Integrity, Security Issue, Enabling, core services and Interfaces that become unstable, unreachable or unavailable.
  • Major: Global lost of important functionality causing operations interruption partial or total,
    enhancement services that become unstable, unreachable or unavailable.
  • Moderate: Services are functional with or without a workaround, but a fix is required.
  • None: Enhancement request, new feature, feature not working as intended but still functional, service issue not impacting clients.
• Date initiated: date that client sent issue to support.

If you want to follow-up or escalate a request, please send an email to support@solabs.com.

If an issue requires multiple steps to resolves, a weekly meeting can be setup with the client to ensure a tight follow-up of the defined set of activities.
