Understanding escalation

Understanding escalation

When Service Desk tickets are escalated, email messages are sent to recipients as specified in the queue settings.

You can choose to send escalation email to:

•
Ticket owners
•
Ticket submitters
•
Users with the technical skills to resolve issues
•
Users with the authority to dedicate more resources to the problem

The Email on Events section of the Queue Detail page, and the Category CC list on each ticket, determine who receives escalation email messages.

Changing ticket escalation settings

Changing ticket escalation settings

Service Desk ticket escalation settings determine the actions that are taken when ticket priority or status changes.

Escalation email is sent for tickets with a priority of High and a status change from New to Opened. If a ticket owner does not respond to a ticket within 30 minutes, you can change the escalation settings to make the ticket eligible for escalation.

Change the list of escalation email recipients

Change the list of escalation email recipients

You can change the email recipients used for Service Desk ticket escalation as needed.

If you are using the default settings, change the ticket status from New to Opened. If you have changed the default settings, make sure that at least one status has a state of Opened, and assign the ticket that status. See Configuring ticket settings.

(Optional) Assign tickets the Opened state by default or create a policy requiring that ticket owners change the tickets status as soon as they take ownership.
