Resolution and Recovery of Incident Records

The assignment group is responsible for the incident's resolution. The assignment group typically performs the following tasks:

• Resolves the incident.

  For more information, see the procedure that follows this section.

• Opens a request for change (RFC) when the incident cannot be resolved.

  For more information about request for change records, see Recording Request for Change Records Details.

• Takes recovery actions. A recovery action is a permanent solution, a workaround, or temporary fix.

  For more information about recovering actions, see Change Management.
