The more preliminary information customers can supply about a problem or issue at the beginning of the reporting process, the sooner the Software Support Engineer (SSE) can supply a solution or workaround. Information of most help to the SSE includes accurate operating system and software version numbers, the steps leading to the problem or crash, the first few lines of a traceback, and problem sections of the Procedural Interface code.
