While there are a variety of additional items that may need to be tracked as part of an ongoing process to resolve any system issues that the customer may have, these are basically the core actions that need to be taken. From this point the actions taken are based on the needs essential in resolving any remaining issues that the client is having or additional information needed to complete the required
