Some helpful questions to determine the severity of impact include:
-
Severity: Does this issue prevent use of a product or can you continue with a work around?
-
Scope: How many users are affected? A few users or multiple practices?
-
Certainty: Have you eliminated all other possibilities for the issue? E.g., can the issue be because of user error or a need for user training?
