Add Notes - Updating Your Tickets

The Add Note Explorer option enables you to add a note to the current call or request.

The Add Note Explorer option enables you to add a note to the current call or request. This is a useful functionality when a call or request has been forwarded to another person and you do not currently own it, or do not want to take ownership of it, but you wish to add some details to it.

When a note is made, it is added to the history of the request, where it can be selected and viewed by all handling analysts.

You must uncheck the "Visible in Self Service Portal" in order for the note to be internal/private.

Before you start

Notes can only be added to a call or request that is open. If you try to add a note to a request or call that is closed, ASM Core displays a warning message stating that it cannot be updated.

  1. You can add notes to a call, request or task in either of the following ways:

    • Select the Add Note explorer option from the Call, Request or Task Details window.

    • Select the Add Note icon on the toolbar of a Requests Outstanding or Calls Outstanding window.

It is not necessary to Take Action on a ticket in order to add a note. This is useful for updating calls and requests where you do not want to take ownership.

  1. In the Explorer pane, expand Communication, then select Add Note to display the <request/call number> Add Note window. This window already includes the reference number, user and description of the current call/request.

  2. Complete the details.

If you are adding a note to a call, use the following options as needed

  1. Click OK to save your note.

The IND column for the call, request, or task on the Calls, Requests, or Tasks Outstanding window will show a note icon.

Your system may be configured to update the Last Action Time whenever you add a note to a call.

Depending on your system configuration, the Last Action Time field of the call/request may be updated when you add a note.
