Request to fix bug

Hi Charlie

If it was a quick 5 mins I would do it straight away. However I need to do a little investigation - maybe a couple of hours.

If that is OK, I will spend that time on this and let you know how I go.

  1. Please approve

✅ Figure: Good Example - Ask for billable hours approval if a support request demands more than 20 minutes
