Adding new Tickets & Cases

Creating new Case and Ticket types

In addition to being able to create new Case and Ticket types from the Service Line, you are able also to create new Case and Ticket types from the Service Matrix screen itself. Click the '+' icon, select a Case or a Ticket and then fill out the required information in the resulting popup.

A new column will then be added to the Service Matrix.

The new Case/Ticket will also be added to the Service Line:

Creating new Ticket / Case Processes

On the Service Matrix screen, hover over the grid position where you wish to add the Ticket / Case and click the resulting ‘+’ icon.

This will take you to the Ticket or Case screen where you can begin configuration.

Note: You can only do this if you have already added a Contract and Service to the row. If no '+' icons displays, ensure you have a Contract & Service in place for that Customer.

Different Configuration States of Case and Ticket

As you configure the settings of a new Case or Ticket, it can move through various states until it is ready to run Work Items through in Work Manager.

The key in the top right tells you the states of the Cases and Ticket processes.
