Issues

An issue is an individual accessibility problem. Issues are tracked per product and can be linked to audits, areas, and standard requirements.

Creating an issue

Any member can create issues.

Open a product and go to the Issues tab.
Click New issue.

Fill in the fields:

Field	Description
Title	Short description of the problem.
Description	Full details.
State	`Open` or `Closed`. Defaults to `Open`.
Severity	`High`, `Medium`, or `Low`.
Priority	`Critical`, `High`, `Medium`, or `Low`.
Impact	`High`, `Medium`, or `Low`.
Effort	`High`, `Medium`, or `Low` (estimated remediation effort).
Audit	Optional: the audit this issue was found in.
Areas	Optional: one or more areas this issue affects.
Source	`Ablebase` (default) or `GitHub`. For GitHub issues, provide the URL and issue ID.

Click Create.

Linking requirements

From an issue’s detail page, use the Requirements tab to map the issue to one or more requirements from the product’s accessibility standard. This replaces the full set of linked requirements each time you save.

Filtering and sorting

The issues list can be filtered by state, severity, priority, impact, effort, area, audit, and source. Use the sort controls to order by any column.

Saved views

Save a combination of filters, sort settings, and column visibility as a named view for quick access. See Saved Views.

Bulk operations

Select multiple issues using the checkboxes to perform bulk actions:

Action	Who can do it
Update state, severity, priority, impact, or effort	Any member
Delete	Admins and owners only

Up to 100 issues can be selected at once.

Organization-level issues list

The Issues item in the main sidebar shows all issues across every product in the organization. Use it to get a cross-product view without navigating into individual products.
