Severity levels
Some request forms contain the Severity field where you can set different levels of damage caused by a bug or security issues. Severity levels are not related to speed i.e. how fast your requests will be processed; though they are tied to different specialists and processes. Selecting a wrong severity level can actually prolong the resolve time because issues will bounce between different departments. If you are unsure, please select Moderate and ask your client manager to adjust the level after request evaluation.
