Ticket statuses provide a clear view of a ticket's progress and can be changed from within a ticket, from the Tickets page directly, or upon sending a ticket reply.
The preset ticket statuses are defined as follows:
Open: The request has been assigned to a technician who is working to resolve it.
Pending: The technician has a follow-up question for the contact. While the Pending status is used on tickets, the SLA will be paused.
Resolved: The technician has resolved the support issue, awaiting confirmation from the support manager.
Closed: The ticket is confirmed resolved and is now closed. However, the contact can create follow-up requests. When a follow-up request is made, the ticket is reopened and the status is changed to Open.
It's important to note that the status of a ticket does not affect the time worked on the ticket. To measure the time worked on a ticket accurately, you'll need to use time entries.
You also have the option to create Custom ticket statuses
Note: When resolving a ticket, add a resolution to quickly reference in case of similar issues in the future. Learn more about ticket resolutions
