Service Service Ticket Overview Ticket Form
Ticket Form Definitions (page 1)
When a new Service Ticket is created, the Ticket form is the first data entry form that must be filled out to be able to save the ticket. This form is comprised of selection fields, free-form text fields, and informational fields. Each Selection Field displays an arrow to the right of the field; the User will press this arrow to reveal a list of choices from which to select. In the Free-Form Text Fields the User may type in any pertinent information as long as it does not exceed the character limit for the field. The Informational Fields are displayed in a blue font; there is often more information contained in the field than there is room to display on the Ticket form. The User may double-click on the blue text to display the entire content of the field information.
Each field on the Ticket form will be described below.

A new Contact may be created on the fly by pressing the Contacts button to the right of the Contact field.
