Reviewing a fix, and disagreeing with it

A resolved ticket keeps the record of what was fixed, why, how to verify it and what the reporter was told — plus a place for the owner to say the fix was wrong, which is carried into the next attempt.

What it is

A modal on any resolved ticket showing the resolution summary, the rationale, the test steps and the verbatim message sent to the reporter, each editable after the fact. A feedback field records the owner's disagreement with how it was resolved.

Also called: that's not fixed · reopen · owner feedback · fix review · reporter message

The review modal with summary, why, test steps, the verbatim reporter message, and the feedback box under an owner-feedback heading. Sample data — no customer information appears here.
How it works
  1. 1Open a resolved ticket to see exactly what was claimed and what the reporter was told.
  2. 2Edit any of it; the edit is stamped.
  3. 3Write feedback when the fix was wrong.
  4. 4That feedback is carried into the exported ticket under an explicit owner-feedback marker so the next attempt has to follow it.
  5. 5Whether the reporter was actually notified — or why the notification was skipped — is shown on the ticket.
Why we built it

The export code calls this field out as the most valuable line in the whole document: 'The owner's correction on a PREVIOUS resolution. Highest-signal line in the whole export: it is the one place a human said the last fix was wrong.'

The problem
  • A wrong fix had no channel except filing the bug again.
  • The record of what was told to a customer was not kept.
  • Corrections did not reach whoever attempted the fix next.
Sound familiar?
What you get
A wrong fix is corrected as a correction, not as a duplicate ticket.
What the customer was told is on record verbatim.
The next attempt starts from the objection.
