Executing Problem
This functionality allows executing the problem.
In this step, are made the classification of the problem and the designation of the appropriate area to handle the problem according to the IT Service Catalog.
It is necessary to link the problem to existing incidents and register the problem to facilitate prioritization of problem-solving, evaluate the impact on business, and determine the urgency of the solution.
This evaluation determines the classification of the problem.
Before getting started
It is necessary to have problems registered to execute them.
Procedure
- Access the main menu Processes > Problem Management > Problem;
- Find the problem you want to execute, click on "Open" and confirm the assignment of a task to your user;

⚠️ Attention!
Users using version 7: the associated error message and Diagnostic fields that already contained information, will now appear in version 8 on the Evaluation and Diagnostics tab within the Diagnostics area. If you do not have information in these fields in previous versions, this tab will not appear in version 8.
- Create a Kanban or link an existing one.
- To create a new Kanban, you need to click on "+ Workspace" and complete the data available, such as title, select the users responsible for the execution of the problem, and others. To link a Kanban already created, just click on the other icon, related to the Workspace.
⚠️Attention!
When linking an existing Kanban, if the user does not have permission to access a particular Workspace, the system will display a message informing you. The user must then request permission in Workspace and Sprint or create a new Kanban framework.
- Register any known error in order to enable the evaluation by the responsible team, and the diffusion of your solution to the ones interested.
- Therefore, it is necessary, in the "Known Error" tab, to click on "Add Workaround" and describe the relevant information;
💡 Tip: It is possible to register more of a solution to the "Workaround" item.

5. In the "Review and Closure" area, it will be allowed to specify the details of the problem solution and lessons learned with it, through the following actions:
