Remote Support Ticketing - Guest Users with Students at Multiple Locations

We are utilizing Remote Support Ticketing and parents are submitting tickets(as guest) who have students at more than one location.  I.E. - Student 1 attends High School, Student 2 attends middle school.  If I enter a ticket with my guest email for student 1 and select high school and later enter a ticket for student 2, my location defaults to student 1’s location despite the fact that I chose a different location on the initial screen.  This in combination with the security password is creating a very unpleasant experience for our parent population.  How can we resolve the location defaulting to a parent’s previous choice.  (This also occurs when a student moves up in grade level to a new school, Parent’s email is attached to old location and default(and routes) to that location).

@jeremyjameson Thank you for submitting your question to our Community. 

This logic is hard-coded into our system, so we are unable to change it. The parent accounts will default to the first location they submitted a ticket to. This would be a great enhancement to add to our Idea Exchange: https://community.incidentiq.com/ideas

I have the same issue and this makes Remote Supoort Ticketing useless.

 

Please consider changing this ASAP.

This logic also affects the Events tool if you want to provide Guests the ability to login to the platform to view all their pending events.

Correction: This logic also appears to affect the Events tool if you want to provide Guests the ability to login to the platform to view all their pending events. Cannot confirm this without further testing, but stumbled on this article when researching the issue for the Events tool in the community.
