Support Severity Levels 

Severity 1 (urgent) 

A problem that severely impacts your use of the software in a production environment (such as loss of production data or in which your production systems are not functioning). The situation halts your business operations, and no procedural workaround exists. 

Severity 2 (high) 

A problem where the software is functioning but your use in a production environment is severely reduced. The situation is causing a high impact on portions of your business operations, and no procedural workaround exists. 

Severity 3 (medium) 

A problem that involves partial, non-critical loss of use of the software in a production environment or development environment. For production environments, there is a medium-to-low impact on your business, but your business continues to function, including by using a procedural workaround. For development environments, where the situation is causing your project to no longer continue or migrate into production. 

Severity 4 (low) 

A general usage question, reporting of a documentation error, or recommendation for a future product enhancement or modification. For production environments, there is a low-to-no impact on your business or the performance or functionality of your system. For development environments, there is a medium-to-low impact on your business, but your business continues to function, including by using a procedural workaround.
