Before reporting a Support ticket in Jira 

  1. Confirm that the Bug can be recreated in the current release FOLIO current environment found on https://wiki.folio.org/
  2. Verify that the Bug has not already been submitted to the Support SIG
    1. Open Production Bugs 

Creating a Jira ticket: 

There are two paths to reporting a production bug

  1.  Log into Jira https://issues.folio.org
  2.  Click Create in the top navigation 
    1.  A pop-up window will appear
    2.  Project = Support (SUP)
    3.  Issue Type = Bug
    4. Template = Standard Bug Write-Up Format
    5. Summary =  Treat as a Subject line for an email, Sample: "Check out the receipt emails are not sendt to library users"
      1. Pro tip: Indicate your level of priority in the summary - /wiki/spaces/DQA/pages/2657909  (P1, P2, P3, P4)
        1. EXAMPLE:  P2 -Check out the receipt emails are not sent to library users
    6. Description: 
      1. create a problem statement
      2. Indicate steps to reproduce 
      3. what is expected to happen 
      4. what is really happening 

A stellar Jira ticket would contain:

• Library Name of who is impacted and what community environment the issue was recreated in
• The perceived impact/priority of the issue in the summary line 
• Date/time(please include your time zone) the problem started
• What you expect to happen
• What actually happens
• Steps to replicate the problem
• Details! Screenshots!

Important: Also try do test(s) in one of the FOLIO reference environments like FOLIO Snapshot, or the latest FOLIO Bugfest environment, inorder to verify if this found issue is caused by a locally configuration problem, etc or this is a general FOLIO code issue. 


Troubleshooting Tips and tricks: 

• Which browser am I using? Google Chrome is the only officially supported browser for FOLIO.
• Can I reproduce the issue with another record?
• Does this also happen for my colleagues?
• Do I have sufficient permissions to perform this action?
• Are my app settings configured to support this action?
• Can I reproduce the issue in an incognito window?
• Can I reproduce the issue in a community reference environment on the same FOLIO version?

Looking under the hood


• Open FOLIO in Chrome
• Press F12 to open the browser’s Developer Tools
• Look at the Network and Console panes
• Any error messages?
