Here you can find more information on how to build a meaningful ticket and what information to attach in the request:
- What are the symptoms? Describe the issue you are experiencing?
This will help us to understand the issue better
- When did the issue first begin? Has it ever worked as expected in the past?
It’s how we will know if it is related to the changes or can be an issue for your specific implementation
- Have you conducted any recent changes, such as system changes or Sisense version upgrade?
We might have issues that are related to a specific version, plugins compatibility etc. This will help us identify where should we look during the troubleshooting process
- Does the issue reproduce at all times, or only in a specific scenario?
In some cases you can reproduce the issue only when following specific steps, that is why such details are important
- Does the issue occur across the board, or only on specific dashboards/cubes/users?
We might need to review your specific implementation, dashboard, model to reproduce the case. This will save time for the testing process.
- During the time of the issue, do you find the system under high RAM/CPU utilization?
Sometimes issues are related to the server your Sisense is installed on. The amount of memory, CPU, disk capacity can affect the performance and cause other issues.
-
- Add a description of the impact - How does this affect users? Can you work around this issue? Security - is data security compromised? Integrity - is data integrity compromised? (missing data, wrongful data, wrongful results).
This will help us to build the flow of the ticket and prioritize the steps (if we have time to review the root cause, or we need to find a quick workaround first).
