  • Patent number: 10152400
    Abstract: Error occurrence/recurrence rates from multiple users of a software system are monitored. In one embodiment, log error data and context data associated with a critical issue is provided to a server side repository. When it is detected that a threshold number of users of a software application are facing the same critical issue a community portal is updated with a facility for users to post their solutions, i.e., workarounds, and/or observations, and/or comments, associated with the specific critical issue/error. In one embodiment, the posted solutions are rated and/or monitored, and if the rating for a given solution receives a rating above a threshold rating value, then data suggesting the solution, and/or implementing the solution, is pushed to users who continue to encounter the same critical issue, in one embodiment, using an action message framework, until a permanent fix is applied.

  • Patent number: 10148590
    Abstract: Pre-defined unlock codes are generated that are associated with defined access related error codes. When an access issue is encountered, the pre-defined unlock code associated with the received error code is provided to the blocked user. When the blocked user provides the pre-defined unlock code associated with the received error code, the user is provided access to the software application on a temporary basis. Therefore, embodiments of the present disclosure provide a technical solution to the long standing technical problem in the workflow application environment of users of a software application getting stuck and blocked from making progress with their workflows due to access and/or critical issues, without the need for applying a permanent data fix, releasing a patch, or developing, releasing, and/or installing a new application version, at least until a long-term solution can be formulated and implemented.
