Tickets

In a rule that creates subtickets, is it possible to create an additional subticket only if a custom field = a specific value?For instance, when a student unenrolls from our district, the office manager puts in a ticket for our building tech to make arrangements to collect the student’s iPad.  A subticket is created for our state reporting coordinator to unenroll the student in our student information system. What I want to do is have the same rule create a second subticket if the student is a Special Ed student (SPED Student? custom field = Yes) but I don’t think I can do that unless I build second rule to follow this one. *Edited to add that I tried to accomplish this in two rules but am unable to create a second subticket in a separate rule that relates back to the parent ticket created by the previous rule. The rules simulator makes it look like this should work, but it does not create a second subticket on the parent ticket or any ticket at all.

Hi all,I’m wondering if anyone has an option on best practice for assigning tickets and what your reasoning is.Option AAssign to Agent or Team add comment with instructions or justification for ticket assignment.Option Badd comment with instructions or justification for ticket assignment. Assign to Agent or Team

I need some help trying to get notifications to work the way we want. I have been spent a couple of days playing around and still don’t have it working. We have someone that sits on our Help Desk and creates tickets for people all day. People in the Technology department also cover the Help Desk when she is off or during lunch. I do not want her, or those people covering the Help Desk phones, to constantly receive email notifications on tickets they open, when an agent updates the ticket, or when an agent closes the ticket days later. I still want the person who the ticket was opened on behalf of to receive all those notifications. The only solution I have come up with is that we have to change the submitted by to the person who called into the Help Desk.

We’re seeing a large uptick in physical damages to Chromebooks. We attempted to take pictures and add them to every ticket, but we forget frequently. Is there a way to require a picture before you close a ticket? Anyone doing anything different? 

We are trying to figure out a way to monitor our parts to include when we are in need of new parts. Is there a way to show negative parts inventory? This way I know that I need to order that many parts? Or has anyone else found a better way to do this? Due to lack of money, we tend to only have enough parts on hand for our current repairs in the que. 

Hi there I was wondering if anyone has a way that we can filter tickets by what ones have had assets exchanged in them. I am trying to see how often specific technicians opt for an exchange vs doing a full repair. Thanks!

I want to export my ticket data into a spreadsheet so I can breakdown the data in ways IIQ cannot, but I can not find a way to include the device category. for example, when exporting all the ticket data I want to be able to sort it by all chromebook tickets or all desktop tickets, but all I get is something like this: Acer Chromebook 311 (C733, C733U, C733T) - Connectivity > Can't connect to Network / Wifi. And in a perfect world i would like this part “Connectivity > Can't connect to Network / Wifi” also broken up into two difference fields.

For tracking purposes, we need to be able to track, for example, an iPad, an iPad charger, and an iPad stylus separately. Essentially: it’s way lower overhead for everyone involved -- and therefore we can get humans to do it -- to not have specific “sets”, but just to grab one of each, as-needed. And not everyone needs the entire set.This is all fine, until it gets to managing those loans. Right now, we have three tickets for someone who checks out an iPad with a stylus and a charger. On the up side, it means that when a device is missing from a cart, we know who has it, and when it is supposed (or was supposed) to come back. On the down side, it’s a tedious mess getting those tickets set up.My current solution is a Google Form that users submit (they scan a QR code on the cart to get to it), and they just punch in the the numbers of the devices that they’re taking. From those numbers, I’m able to generate links to create new tickets for each of the devices that are be

I put in a ticket for Incident IQ because CSV file format was not correct as the file being created is placing one extra comma in the file when as seen when you open it up with notepad. Hoping that they fix this format problem as I have to save the file as file type CSV to fix the Excel downloads all the time! The person working support decided that it was no big deal and closed the ticket on support, but the file format is still not CSV by standards. I wonder how many other people are finding this a problem who use Incident IQ on the Excel data files that they download? I think fixing this problem would eliminate this happening and also would gain more customers confidence in Incident IQ in the future.    Note: Normal CSV file doesn’t have a comma on the last column value.

We are trying to use the Out Of Office Periods more. It looks like you can create them two ways, either through your profile or through the calendar and selecting out of office as the type. When created on the calendar they still show in the Out of Office Periods section under your profile.Is the "Covering Agent" a required field? It doesn't flag it as required when making one without. In our case we have all tickets get assigned first to our help desk team via round robin and had thought it would just go to the next person. Our testing seemed to confirm as much but now that our agents are using it we are seeing some where tickets still go to a person who is within their out of office period.

I explored the Admin area of InidentIQ to find out how to create a new button called "Safety & Security" in the Create a new ticket section. We have a district team that is part of the standard ticking group, and I would like to include this category while keeping the existing ones intact. Therefore, I kindly request to add this category.

It’s common for us in the tech department to submit tickets on behalf of users. I am noticing that we are receiving email notifications for tickets, even when we are no longer a follower on the ticket. Is this normal? Thanks!

We have a contractor who receives tickets for a very specific job. We are trying to create a rule that would limit who can assign tickets to that agent (the contractor) to a certain team or a small group of people (the members of that team). So far we have been able to create a rule that forces that team to also be assigned to tickets assigned that contractor, but is there is concern about work being performed without proper approval.

One of the issues we are having right now is on a ticket creation from Email once we assign the correct issue we loose the original subject (( some times this has key info )) Is there a way to take the subject “layer 1” and copy it into “layer 2” automatically on ticket creation from email ? or is this just a manual process we have to continue to do ?  

Hiya folks! I have a user that the parts section of the UI looks off. Is there a fix?  

is there a way to set up email to tickets to have a specific spot you can put the building name to assign it to that location instead of by the users default location?

I am able to generate some nice webhooks thanks to this post by @MattHenry. HOWEVER, my posts in slack are showing up as URL encoded. Here’s my Body:{ "blocks": [ { "type": "header", "text": { "type": "plain_text", "text": "{Ticket.TicketNumber} - {Ticket.TicketSubject} ({Ticket.TicketPriority})", "emoji": true } }, { "type": "divider" }, { "type": "context", "elements": [ { "type": "image", "image_url": "https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/625633822235693056/lNGUneLX_400x400.jpg", "alt_text": "cute cat" }, { "type": "plain_text", "text": "{Ticket.TicketStatusName}.

Adding parts to tickets so that we can keep track within our inventory was easy enough until today when everything changed. Now we can’t insert parts because this new way of adding a Part Record won’t point back to our inventory. Is this an issue? Or a change that hasn’t been completely implemented yet?

When trying to create a sub task within a sub ticket, it will not save. Is this a bug?See screen recording

This may be a odd and imposible request but I was wondering if there was a way to have tickets still be open but not on the available to work tab.  My thinking is that we have about 30ish broken screen tickets that say open till we get parts for them.  We wait to buy bulk parts so that we can get them cheaper.  That being said, they usually complete the ticket so that it doesnt clog up the open ticket files.  I like to keep them open since they are not fixed and will give a complete number of devices that are waiting for parts.  I have thought of putting them into locations but then it would put all of them in the “waiting for parts” location while also keep thing the “open tickets” open.   Please let me know if you have any suggestions or if any of that doesnt make sense and I can try and better clarify what I am looking for. 

Can i make a sub ticket have the parent tickets description put into the sub ticket details automatically. So if Parent ticket was “Billy is a new hire at main street building.” can we make it to where the sub ticket says “please assign memberships to Billy.” “Billy is a new hire at main street building”?? 

I’m thinking I’m just missing something...I can’t find a way for the user to select a different location for their Quick Tickets other than the site they are assigned to. This was a perfect way for us to limit the use of a specific ticket type to a certain user, but he’s not able to change the location of the ticket to other sites.  Also couldn’t find a way to change the location automatically by creating a custom field.  Just trying to figure out a way.

Hello, I have a ticket open with support they are saying the dev team needs to look into this but was wondering if anyone else is not have their SLA time calculating correctly. It almost seems like it randomly picks a time for the response and resolution time  ThanksRon   

Device that needs repairs of any kind that require it to be opened up in any way.

Hi all, It looks like the priority levels have been updated recently, at least on our site. Previously we had our priority levels set to 0 - 50 (low), 51 - 100 (medium), 101 - 150 (high) and 151 - 200 (critical). However, going into the settings now it shows the following:I wanted to make this post in case this was changed across the board instead of just our site. As this can cause some of the rules you’ve made regarding ticket priorites/levels to no longer work correctly. We had a rule set to increase the priority by 50 each week that a ticket is in progress. However, with the new rule levels this would have caused it to go from the default 50 → 100 in a week.
