Manage ticket templates

Manage ticket templates

Ticket templates allow you to create different ticket types within the same queue. This mechanism allows you to better control the information your end users provide for different request scenarios, without having to create different queues.

Each queue can have one or more ticket templates. If multiple templates exist in a queue, you must select one ticket template as the default template.

1.
Go to the Service Desk Queue Detail page:
a.
Log in to the appliance Administrator Console, https://appliance_hostname/admin. Or, if the Show organization menu in admin header option is enabled in the appliance General Settings, select an organization in the drop-down list in the top-right corner of the page next to the login information.
b.
On the left navigation bar, click Service Desk, then click Configuration.
c.
On the Configuration panel, click Create and manage queues in Queue section.
d.
To display the Queue Detail page, do one of the following:
Select Choose Action > New.
2.
3.
Scroll down to the Ticket Templates section.
4.
To add a new ticket template to the queue, in the Ticket Templates section, click . For more information on how to create a new ticket template, see Configure a ticket template.
5.
To make a ticket template the default template for the selected queue, in the row containing the desired template, in the Is Default column, click Make Default. Any queue with one or more ticket templates must have a default template.

Configure a ticket template

Configure a ticket template

A ticket template specifies a set of fields that appear on the Ticket Detail page. Each queue can have one or more ticket templates.

Use the Ticket Template Detail page to configure a new or an existing template.

1.
Go to the Service Desk Queue Detail page:
a.
Log in to the appliance Administrator Console, https://appliance_hostname/admin. Or, if the Show organization menu in admin header option is enabled in the appliance General Settings, select an organization in the drop-down list in the top-right corner of the page next to the login information.
b.
On the left navigation bar, click Service Desk, then click Configuration.
c.
On the Configuration panel, click Create and manage queues in Queue section.
d.
To display the Queue Detail page, do one of the following:
Select Choose Action > New.
2.
On the Service Desk Configuration page, in the Layout section, click Create ticket templates to display the Ticket Templates section.
To add a new ticket template to the queue, in the Ticket Templates list page, click Choose Action > New.
To modify an existing ticket template, in the Ticket Templates list page, click the ticket template name.
The Ticket Template Detail page appears.
3.
On the Ticket Template Detail page, provide the following information:

Option

Description

Name

(Required) The name of the template.

Enabled

Select this check box when the template is ready for use. This option is useful if you want to prevent this template from being exposed to end users before it is completed.

Description

A brief description of the template. This text appears as a tooltip on the User Portal, when you point to the link for this ticket template.

For process only

Select this check box if you want this ticket template to be available to process templates. This causes some options in the ticket template to become disabled, because they are not applicable in this context. For example, the Limit template to selected users option cannot be applied to process-based ticket templates because each process template has an option in the wizard to associate labels with process template tickets.

Limit template to selected users

Select this check box if you want to make this template available only to specific users using labels. Then, click Manage Associated Labels, and in the Select Labels dialog box that appears, select one or more labels associated with the users that you want to grant access to this ticket template. When done, close the dialog box.

Is default

Select this check box if you want to make this ticket template the default template in the queue. When a ticket template is configured as a default template for a queue, each time you create a ticket in that queue without specifying a ticket template, the default template is applied. You can switch between templates, if needed. For more information, see Create tickets from the Administrator Console Ticket page.

Show in User Portal

Select this check box if you want end users to have a link to this ticket template on the Need Help page in the User Console.

Layout

Choose a layout that best suits your needs:

3 Column Layout: Use this layout if the template contains fields of average height in each row.
2 Column + Right Panel Layout: Use this layout if the template contains one or more fields that are taller than the rest of the fields in the same row, like Summary, or Resolution. Having one tall field in a row where other fields are of average height causes those other fields in the same row to be pushed down, creating random gaps in the layout. When you select this option, you can place all of your tall fields in the right panel, to make optimal use of the vertical real estate. To move a field between the panels, double-click the field.

You can switch between the two layouts, if needed.

a.
In the Ticket Form Template section, drag one or more fields from the area on the right.

Tab

Option

Description

Overrides

Use the options on this tab to configure any overrides for field parameters that are already specified in the queue to which this ticket template belongs to.

Label

The field name.

Required

Indicates if the field value must be provided or not. Select one of the following values:

For more information about these values, see Define custom ticket fields.

Permission

Specify which users have access to this field. Select one of the following values:

For more information about these values, see Define custom ticket fields.

Default Value

Configure the default value for this field.

Conditional Logic

Use the options on this tab to show or hide certain fields based on the previously selected values on the ticket page.

For example, if you have a ticket template for printer issues, you can display different set of fields that are applicable to different kinds of printer issues. If the user indicates on the ticket that the printer is missing paper, the page displays a set of fields that allow the user to specify the paper format.

Visibility

Indicate if you want the field to appear or not when the specified conditions are met.

When

Specify the action on the field based on the outcome of conditional expressions. Select one of the following values:

Required when visible

Select this option if you want the end user to populate this field when it appears in the ticket.

Condition

Add up to five conditions to control the appearance of the selected field. Each condition can evaluate if the value of a field that appears on the page matches or does not match a certain value. You can only select those fields that have pre-defined values associated with them (and typically appear as multi-value lists on the ticket page), or check boxes. Simple text fields, such as Title, are not available for selection.

For example, you can create a condition that evaluates whether a printer issue matches Ink, Paper, or Other, and display or hide the selected field, as required.

5.
Click Apply Changes.

Next, you can preview the ticket template. For more information, see Preview ticket layout.

Preview ticket layout

Preview ticket layout

When you finish making changes to the way tickets are displayed on the New Ticket and Ticket Detail pages for a selected ticket template, you can preview the ticket page layout.

There are several preview options to choose from. The type of information on the ticket page depends on the permissions associated with the user accessing the page (User or Owner), and the action type (New Ticket or Ticket Detail). For example, a Ticket Owner typically has access to more information than a user associated with the ticket. Also, the New Ticket page can have some additional controls for providing comments or linking attachments, unlike the Ticket Detail page.

Using parent-child ticket relationships

Using parent-child ticket relationships

You can set up any Service Desk ticket as a parent ticket and assign child tickets to it.

There are two ways to use the parent-child relationship:

Prevent the parent from being closed unless all its child tickets are closed. This strategy uses the parent ticket as a global to-do list and each child ticket as a separate task on the list. After all the tasks are completed and the child tickets are closed, the parent can be closed.
Close all child tickets when you close the parent ticket. This strategy is useful for tickets that are duplicates of the same problem. For example, if a server crashes and users file duplicate tickets about the issue. When the server is restored, the ticket owner can close the parent and close all of the child tickets at the same time.

Regardless of the strategy you choose, child tickets cannot be orphaned. That is, you cannot close the parent ticket before closing the child tickets.
