Create ticket categories and subcategories

Create ticket categories and subcategories

You can create ticket categories and subcategories as needed. Categories and subcategories are queue-specific, and they become available to all new and existing tickets in the selected queue when they are created.

You can add as many ticket categories as you need, each with one or more subcategories. For example, in the ticket category Hardware, you might want to have a subcategory such as Monitor. These categories would appear on the Ticket Detail page as:The image show Hardware and Monitor as two selectable and expandable choices under Category.

When users select the Monitor subcategory, you might want to display additional subcategories, such as model information:The image shows the Monitor category expanded to display ClearView2000 as a subcategory.

Most customers use a two-tiered approach to categories and subcategories. They create general categories and subcategories for users, such as:

•
Hardware – Monitor

Then they create additional subcategories with model information for Service Desk staff, such as:

•
Hardware – Monitor – AceElectronics – V4500
•
Hardware – Monitor – AceElectronics – V4600
