    2. Mention the issue type from the below
    3. Priority
    4. Description - To explain the request/issue better 
Why it is important:
  • We now have more states & more environments, every issue deserves to be addressed, to be tracked, prioritise, resolve.
  • Focused and distinguished requests can help identifying and assigning the right skill and assignee to address the issue. 
  • Each issue type has its own priority, workflow, approval, SLA, these need to be assigned and address to right person and process despite the magnitude of requests.
  • Audit the workload, introspect, retrospect issues, build reusable utilities, etc..
  • Leverage Eco-system, partners to handle the scale
