Understanding Ticket Priority

By default the ticket priority will not be set as soon as you raise a ticket. Eventually, tickets will be prioritized based on the Subject and Description you have mentioned. Following are the interpretation of Ticket priorities.

Normal

• Issue Nature:  Degraded functional or operational feature but a workaround is available will be treated as 'Normal' priority ticket.
• Affected Segment: Only a subset of users or non-critical users are affected.

Workstopper

• Issue Nature: Complete disruption of non-critical functional or operational feature or degradation of critical functional or operational feature and workaround is not available.
• Affected Segment: Affects a large set of users or critical set of users.

High

• Issue Nature: Degraded functional or operational feature but a workaround is NOT available.
• Affected Segment: Large set of users or critical set of users (Management, Logistics) are affected.

Low

• Issue Nature: User has an annoyance with a functional or operational feature, but workaround is available. These are typically Includes product questions, feature requests and development issues.
• Affected Segment: Non critical set of users are affected.

Understanding Ticket Status

Open

• Indicates a ticket has been created from any channel and is in progress.
• Typically, either the ticket is just created or it is waiting for action by some agent on some department.

Pending 

• Indicates that the agent is waiting for more information from your (requester) end.
• Tickets with a Pending status cannot be resolved until the requester responds.
• When the requester responds and a new comment is added, the ticket status is automatically reset to Open.

On-Hold

• Working on the ticket got hold as agent is waiting for information or action from someone other than the requester (e.g. third party like EMG, EMR, Loyalty Provider, Billing, Account Manager etc.. )
• It is similar to the Pending status in that an agent can't proceed with resolving the ticket until he receives more information from someone else.
• Example scenario: (typically non-technical reasons) License payment not received, Billing due, EMG, EMR, Loyalty Provider issues.

Solved

• Indicates the agent has submitted a solution and you (requester) as given feedback of issue resolution but closure is pending.
• Reopening a ticket at this state by the customer is allowed 

Closed

• Reopening a ticket at this state by the customer is not allowed. If any how you reopen the ticket in 'Closed' state will be closed again by system.
• This ticket will reach to this state after stipulated time period post issue resolution.
