Tickets

I work on a fleet of chromebooks at a school.  Typically we charge student fees for the Middle and High Schools, but not in K-6.  We also have incidents where the student is not at fault for defective parts. We do not want to charge fees for K-6 or defective parts.When we use an inventory item, it always displays on the ticket with a running cost.  We do NOT want our office staff to charge student fees for items that should be replaced free of charge.  It leads to confusion and sometimes these fees are added that shouldn’t be.For example, a chromebook has a defective battery.  So I add the part to the ticket (taking qty 1 out of our inventory) and the part is added to the ticket including the cost of the battery.Is there a way to have iiQ adjust our inventory, but NOT charge the student a fee?Thanks, can’t wait to see some input on this problem

Is there currently a way to set an assets location and room using a shortcut from a ticket?  I would like to change an assets location using a shortcut as I assess the asset through tickets.  Currently, I have to open a separate window to do so and sometime when I am doing multiple of the same asset, it gets a little confusing because sometimes the window hides behind another window.  Anyway, any help would be much appreciated.

How do I edit the original request detail that I was the requestor for?

Is there a way to edit the problem description of a ticket that you created? My manager created a ticket for himself to track some work but he forgot to add a few lines of information when he submitted the ticket to himself. I thought this would be useful to change these as needed even if it is for yourself. 

Sometimes when creating a ticket with many actions, users/techs will be bombarded with every action as an email. Are there way to limit this (create summaries, collection ‘x’ amount of notifications before sending them as one, etc..? -Marcus

Our team has noticed in past few months that our ticket pages are no longer loading every ticket item that we have set to display. For example, when choosing 50, 100, or 200 items per page. It only loads the first 10 or so that you’re actually able to see on your screen. In order to get the rest you have to completely scroll down until you’ve reached your specified number. In the past these would all load when the page loaded, making it easier to navigate and search tickets on that page.  I reached out to support and was told it was working as intended. I stated that it worked in the past and asked why we would have the option to choose how many items per page we wanted if it didn’t actually load them all? To me that is not working as intended.. They escalated the issue. After the escalation I was again told it was working as intended and to submit a feature enhancement request through this idea exchange.  I’ve attached a screenshot below of what happens

Goal: To allow our accounting department to only have access to tickets with fees without letting them access other non-fee tickets.  Also to not change any visibility for our other agents. Would this work?  If I created an accounting team with a permission policy that does not have any ticket permissions checked.  Then created a rule that once a ticket is updated with the amount applied filter set to greater than zero it will perform the action of assigning the ticket to the accounting team.  Would this allow accounting team members to view only the tickets assigned to them without accessing any other tickets?

We have a team of Project Coordinators who frequently upload important documents related to the project lifecycle into work tickets. Currently, the only option is to attach these files in the comments section. Over time, this pushes documents farther down the ticket, making it difficult to locate them later without scrolling through multiple comments.Is there any way to:Upload files into a single, dedicated area of the ticket (for example, below the Info section or somewhere on the right-hand side)? Keep all documents organized in one place rather than spread throughout the comment thread?I understand this might be a minor feature request, but having a centralized document area would improve efficiency for our team. Any advice, workarounds related to this would be appreciated!

Hello!I would like to allow all of my teachers to submit Staff Device repair tickets using a single Ticket Template.However, when I do that, it means I need to select a single Location and a single Model to submit the ticket under.I have created a “Dummy Model” which can be selected at time of ticket creation called “Staff Device” and given it the issue type “Needs Service” which is just a Description field.Given that we store device associations, building associations and more within IIQ, IIQ already has all of the information required to get the ticket in the correct state, without asking the user submitting the ticket to enter anything:Location of user will be their assigned Location in IIQ, fed from Google SSO Asset Tag of device is the main computer/device assigned to the teacher Model of device can be assumed from Asset TagAt this point, truly all I require from the user is a description of the problem.  I

Just a question.  We are still having a vast majority of our tickets submitted through email.  I would like our district to really push the submissions through IIQ for obvious reasons.  Who has done this and what were some of the issues.  I still would want the option to send a ticket using email but I want that to be the last option for the user.  What worked for those who switched and what were some best practicesThank you

I have to change the way my default campus is sorted every time I view my campus. Is there a way to change the default view for how they are sorted on my dashboard. 

I have a ticket that had a spare attached to it.  I checked in the spare, but the ticket is saying that the spare is still checked out.  I even tried re-checking out the spare and turning it back and it and that did nothing but make a duplicate record.  Any help would be much appreciated because I cannot close the ticket until the spare is returned.  I even tried closing the ticket as a duplicate and it said that the spare had to be returned before the ticket can be closed.  

Two custom fields in a ticket are now requiring to be filled in, but they are not marked as being required and they do not need to be required. When I go to edit the custom field, everything looks set correctly for it to not be required. Was wondering if there is somewhere else I should be looking or if I overlooked something?

I would like to easily create a custom view or way to see this data. Columns would be:DateTickets Open TodayTickets Closed by Tech 1Tickets Closed by Tech 2Total Tickets ClosedTickets RemainingAny ideas?Thanks,Dave

Hi! I have two coworkers that, I believe, have the same general level of admin access but different options within a ticket. Employee 1 has an option to “Return to Dashboard” or “Print” in the bottom right corner of their view of a ticket (pictured below), which allows them to save a sort of receipt, or log, of what was included in the ticket. The other, Employee 2, does not have the option but would like it. Does anyone know what needs to be toggled to give Employee 2 the same ability? Employee 1’s option 

Is there a way to configure the dashboard unassigned queue so that each technician only sees the locations that they are responsible for?

Good morning! What’s the best way to setup IIQ for the following idea?  My tech will submit a ticket for a broken screen and perform the repair.  After he is done, I want to get notified that I will now need to generate an invoice for the student and their family.  I feel like I’m over thinking it, but wanted to see what others have set up. Thanks!

I have a few Powershell scripts that are generating data that is useful for some teams. I’d like to add files, mainly csv, to tickets during ticket creation using the New Ticket API. I’ve got ticket creating sorted with no issues but I’m having trouble finding good info on creating the file through the File API, and then adding it to a new ticket. Has anyone found something that worked?

Afternoon!I am looking into creating a rule that only fires when the Subticket has been resolved, in which the Parent Ticket goes back into “In Progress” status.  Right now, the rule on creation places a Tag on the parent ticket called “Waiting for Department Escalation” and changes the status to “Waiting for Department Escalation.”  When the department closes the subticket, I’d like the Parent ticket to go back into “In Progress” automatically.   I’ve tried comments, resolution actions, and everything in between to create a rule on update.The problem is that the closing of the Subticket is slow, and the Parent ticket updates too quickly so it doesn’t catch the next Rule.  Also, ignore the Issue Types: TEST TICKET That’s my sandbox so it doesn’t happen anywhere else except with test tickets. Help!

I am wanting to know if anyone knows how to create a filter to view users that have had multiple tickets.  The issue is, we want to see students who have had multiple devices checked out to them or tickets to keep track of students who are mistreating chromebooks.  We create a ticket for repair when a chromebook goes out, it would be nice to see what students have had multiple asset changes/tickets.

Sort of a silly question. Is there a way to unmark a ticket as urgent?

Is there a way to see what issue is assigned to a ticket after customizing the subject?I know that the subject defaults to the current issue, but we try to customize our subjects for tickets relating to projects, shipments, etc (mainly our more vague issues). Is there a way/place to show the current issue besides the subject line? I know you can hit that pencil icon and look for the old subject in the timeline, but I was hoping for something a bit more user friendly for our agents!This has mainly come up in the context of agents confirming the issue of the ticket they’ve been assigned. “How do they know if the issue is correct if they can’t see it anywhere?”

I am trying to recreate the metrics on the analytics dashboard, specifically the “Response Time Average for all ticket statuses”I have created a custom ticket view - but when I export the data and calculate the average it does NOT match the average response time when I am on the same custom view, and click analytics.Has anyone else had this issue?  What does specifically the “all ticket statuses” mean? Thanks!Jenn

We have a couple of long term substitutes in our district. I would love for them to be able to use the My Classes option to submit a ticket in iiQ. However, they show that they have no students. These teachers are added to the SIS as substitutes. One was a co-teacher with one of our regular teachers, but is full time now that, that teacher has gone on leave. How can I allow them to use My Classes?

Under ‘Administration > Ticket Statuses’, when I create a new Status, there are options to select Workflow and Workflow Stage. How do I edit the Workflow and Stages of the Workflow? The only workflow in the list is ‘Technology - Default Workflow’, and it’s a searchable list… so I’m assuming more can be added.
