Adding a bug is a simple process consisting of adding two elements pertaining to the bug.

The first is the bug header. The bug header will not change for the lifetime of the bug once submitted.

The second is a bug detail. The bug will consist of one to many bug details throughout its lifetime. Each bug detail represents a change or modification in the state of the bug.

This procedure is performed as follows:
