Add a queue by duplicating an existing queue

Add a queue by duplicating an existing queue

When you duplicate or clone a queue, all data from the existing queue is copied into the new queue, which can be faster than adding a queue from scratch. Ticket Rules are copied to the duplicated queue, but they are disabled by default.

1.
Go to the Service Desk Queues list:
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.
2.
Click the name of a queue to display the Queue Detail page.
3.
Click Duplicate at the bottom of the page.
The new queue contains the same name as the queue from which it was duplicated with an appended unique identifier number. By default, Ticket Rules are disabled in the new queue.
4.
Change the name and settings of the queue as needed.
5.
Click Save.

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.

Viewing tickets in queues

Viewing tickets in queues

View tickets across all queues

You can sort the Tickets page to show all of the tickets in all of your queues in one list. If you have multiple queues, you can specify the queue to be displayed by default on the Tickets page.

If you have multiple queues, you can choose which queue to be displayed by default on the Tickets page. The default queue can be specified:

•
At the system level. This setting is used if no user settings are specified. See Set the default queue at the system level.
•
At the user level. This setting overrides the system level settings. Individual users and administrators who have permission to change user settings can specify the default queue at the user level. See Set the default queue at the user level.
