Using the Call, Request, and Task Details window

The Details window contains information relating to an issue that has been reported, a request or a task that has been assigned to you (the "Ticket").

Logging form involves identifying the user who has reported the incident, problem, known error or service request, recording the service and configuration item, classifying and prioritizing the issue, capturing its details, and finally assigning the ticket to a support analyst.

Finding a ticket involves using the Search or Outstanding windows, or by typing the record number into the Quick Search.

Updating a ticket can involve changing values in fields, such as the Priority or Service, adding comments, changing the status, or assigning to an analyst or group, and finally saving the changes.

Closing a ticket involves changing the value in the Status field to a status configured with the Close function by the System Administrator.
