Timeline
The timeline shows the history of activity that has taken place for a work item in a chronological list. It is divided into the Comms Tab which shows the communications history for the work item and the Timeline Tab which shows all of the activity that has taken place for the work item. See the following video for more information.
Comms Tab
The Comms tab shows the communications history for a work item, such as emails, log activity and notes. For Tickets and Actions, the timeline section will display the Comms tab by default.
The communications will be displayed in chronological order with the most recent at the top and the most recent email communication will be auto expanded by default. You can expand items to view them in more detail.
Incoming communications which have arrived on the work item since it was last accessed by an agent will display on the timeline with a green dot to make you aware of the new communications. The green dots will clear after any manual update is made to the work item and you hit ‘Submit’. The system does not clear the green dots based purely on the work item being viewed, as it could be viewed by multiple parties. Instead, in order to ensure that the agent tasked with working on this item is aware of such recent updates an explicit update to the work item is needed before the green dot will clear.

Additionally, if another Ticket has been merged into the work item you are currently viewing, any communications from that now merged Ticket will initially display on the timeline highlighted with green dots to make you aware of the new relevant communications. These will again clear the next time the work item is manually updated.
