At Bastian Solutions, we continually strive to provide superb customer service at the highest standard, and not only reactive but proactive support. Transparency is a key component in helping achieve this objective and with that in mind, we are providing a full root cause analysis for the disruptions in service on May 18th, 2020 described below.
Summary: On May 21st, 2020 a support call was received by Bastian Solutions Support that touch screens on the Autostore at K&N were showing the message "Waiting on touch work". Since the error recorded from the touch screen was similar in nature to an issue earlier in the week this item was attached to ticket #143290. However, this does not have the same root cause as that issue. Below are the steps that were taken by Bastian Solutions while working on the problem.
May 21st, 2020 2:09 PM Sebastian Lynn, Support Specialist, with Bastian Solutions Software Support received the initial call from K&N.
