Currently I have an excess of systems which have been sent back to our vendor for repair. As the “In Repair (Vendor)” status still shows up in any raw statistics (especially the Ticket Stats widget) it gives misleading information. What is the best practice for handling devices that have been sent to a vendor for warranty repair?

Is it possible to require a comment when a technician changes the status of a ticket?  We have the option to put tickets “on hold” and it stops the SLA clock. I’m fine with that option being available to my technicians, but I want them to be forced to explain why they’re putting a ticket on hold.

We have a ticket for our provisioning that we utilized the IIQ User Custom field, this worked flawlessly for a while. As of the other day, the staff role can no longer populate users in the IIQ User custom field within our provisioning tickets. Need assistance in figuring out how to reverse this. Thanks 

We are interested in printing a barcode label with the student’s name and ID barcode associated with the device they have checked out.  In order to protect their ID number we would like to show the barcode, but hide the actual number that is associated with the barcode.  I couldn’t find a way to hide it.  Anyone know of a way?

Am I the only one that can’t get rapid scan to work via the website? I’m using a barcode scanner and Google Chrome (beta). This just doesn’t work:  

I can’t find a way to process a refund in Fee Tracker, nor can I find any resources about this. (For example, when a family is charged for losing an asset, but then they find the asset, how do we record this within Fee Tracker?)

Is there a way to leave a students name on a device when doing an exchange?  Just need the easiest way of seeing whose device it was because once you do an exchange it removes the device from the student which is great but need to do some other processes after that and it would be helpful to still have their name attached.

I want to allow select staff to view the owner of a device (search by asset tag or serial number) or to search a user’s name or ID to see which, if any, devices are assigned to them.  I am able to allow them to view all assets, but when I try to search for a user or their ID, i am not given the option, nor am I given any results. See screen shot below:User PermissionsSearch optionsIs there a permission I am overlooking?

is there in anyway that i could pull out a record(s)  from all the tickets a certain action item like for example “invoice issued”  because i needed to know how many ticket(s)  that have “invoice issued” and identify all of them 

I am unable to create a ‘Device\Monitor’ asset. I get this error: “The model category cannot be a top level category, it must best nested beneath a top level category”. How can I create a child category within ‘Monitor’?Thanks!

We are in the process of assigning/changing user policies to a ton of Agents. However, we’ve run into an issue. Rather than type it all, I did the screen recording linked below. https://watch.screencastify.com/v/sWs9d8XIvfmhfLE7YwIX Is this a bug or intentional limitation?

Is it possible to create a view/report of all assets that are linked to tickets?

We use Microsoft Teams here- Wondering if theres a way to create a ticket from teams. Often time people bypass Teams and just send us a message. I don’t feel like there is a way but curious if anyone has any ideas. 

Our district is expanding its use of IIQ quickly to encompass more than Technology Support Tickets. The new Forms app is accelerating the expansion even faster. This is leading to some security concerns. For example, if you need access to all tech support tickets you don’t necessary need access to the tickets containing form data our Grant department is using. So far I’ve controlled access 2 ways.Give an Agent rights to the tickets for a particular school When an Agent is assigned a ticket, then they receive rights to itI’m now trying to determine if a third way is possible using Rules. For example, if the Category is Devices and the Location is XYZ, give Agent Jim, rights to the ticket. So far, I’m thinking this is not currently possible, but I thought I’d get some seco

What user settings would allow a user to check items in and out of spare pools?

Does anyone know if it’s possible to have a rule set so that if a ticket is created from 7am-1pm, assign to agent and then a different agent from 1pm-6pm? We have agents that support locations at various times of day and would be great to be able to set up something like this!

If a ticket’s Status is set to “waiting on requestor” it changes to “in progress” only if the submitter responds to it. If any of the followers respond on the email, the ticket’s status is not impacted, and it remains “waiting on requestor”, which might be misleading in some scenarios. Status should change if any of the followers have commented. Is there a setting or a rule that can be created to implement this in IIQ?

Is it possible to give an Agent the ability to make shortcuts available District Wide without making them an IIQ Administrator?

I would like the ability to impersonate / login as another user.  This feature would help with troubleshooting issues. If your user roles are configured differently, your UI will look different from theirs and you'll need to impersonate the other user to be able to see what they see.  It would also aid in proper setup, configuration and verify correct permissions.  Thank you for your consideration.

Within the Google Devices integration app, we have the following params set:It looks to me that IIQ is assigning No Access users as device owners since it is able to match a username.   I’m seeing users that have withdrawn as students being assigned devices...some where the last login date is the previous school year.If this is the default config, I suppose a rule is necessary to remove owners when the owner’s role is “No Access”  ??

Our Facilities employees will begin using iPads for tickets and need to enter their labor. I can’t find where to make that change. We also have Rules set up to assign to an agent with multiple followers but am having some issues getting everything set accordingly for them all to add their time without being the agent of the ticket. 

Does anyone have any experience with Device verification prompts within IQ?My goal is to verify devices my students are currently using, and have IQ update the owner to the current user. I would like to have a notification or something pop up that they can click to verify. Is this possible?

The documentation isn’t clear - if you use the “when a field is updated” filter and you select Issue, does this apply to Issue Category or Issue Type? The rule I have in place has two criteria:When field updated = Issue and Issue Categories = Network Outage for Campusand the actions done are to set the SLA = Sev 1 and priority level = Critical I want to ensure that this will fire whenever the issue is changed from an individual network connectivity issue to a campus outage…..So in other words, I want a global catch-all at the Category level instead of listing every Issue Type. Also, the same principle applies when you want to auto assign an agent when the issue changes…The rule would need to a filter for when the issue field is updated and the Issue Category = a different new issue.  Users don’t always pick the correct issue type so reassignment is going to be necessary. Edited to add: Issue can be selected for whe

There’s a bug in the Ticket Issue selection screen when editing a ticket’s Issue.Can’t go back through the categories. On tickets with Issue Not Listed, after selecting a category, there is no Go Back button like there is when creating a New Ticket.Some tickets when submitted incorrectly to a certain category, when trying to edit that ticket’s issue, it’s stuck at whatever category issue it was made with, can’t go back to change category.Missing Go Back button next to Cancel: 

How would I create a role that has the standard staff permissions and would also allow building staff (principals and secretaries) to see which device(s) their students have checked out to them? Going a step further, is there an additional permission that would allow those same staff members to check in a device if a student leaves the district?
