How to check whether others are affected
PURPOSE
Knowing the scope helps determine whether an issue is individual, team-wide, location-wide, or system-wide.
WHAT TO ASK
Ask a nearby coworker, teammate, or another user whether they see the same issue.
CHECK DIFFERENCES
Note whether affected users share the same location, system, role, network, device type, or file.
DO NOT SPAM
Ask a small relevant group first instead of broadcasting panic.
BEST PRACTICE
Include scope in the ticket so support can prioritize correctly.
