When you have validated a solution to a known error problem and determined that the required approach can be resolved by a Problem Analyst, do the following:

  1. Click Problem Management > Error Control > Search Known Errors.
  2. Use search or advanced search to find one or more records.
  3. Select a known error record in the Known Error Solution Acceptance phase from the record list.
  4. Click Next Phase to advance the phase of the known error record to Known error resolution.
  5. The Problem Coordinator for the group displays in the Problem Coordinator field. If you need to reassign this known error record to a different coordinator, click Fill to generate a record list of Problem Coordinator names and choose one.
  6. Note the resolution information from the problem management meeting.
    • In the Activities section, click New Update Type and then select Problem meeting.
    • Type notes in New Update to add information about the proposed fix and requested fix date. The Problem Coordinator uses this information to schedule the fix for a Problem Analyst to resolve.
  7. Click Save & Exit. The system notifies the Problem Coordinator of this updated record.
