Upon receipt of a support request the support administrator will first verify that the customer’s organisation has a valid support contract for the product concerned. The contact details will be verified and the incident details will be entered into the Esri UK Call Logging System. Each incident will be identified by a unique ESRI support reference number, which should be noted for future reference.
Each new incident is reviewed and allocated to the next available analyst. They will make a preliminary investigation and then contact you by phone or email to offer suggestions or to request further information.
Our support analysts will continue to assist you to resolve the problem by offering advice, reproducing the problem in-house, suggesting work-arounds or testing certain source data. Some incidents may take several days to investigate and may take longer to resolve if they are difficult to replicate or where there is no readily available work around or a solution depends upon a bug fix or enhancement that will only become available in a future release of the product.
