Overview

Ticket Templates exist in any ticket area for use in the New Ticket screen when populating detail of the ticket.

For those tickets reported on a regular basis, a Ticket Template can be created in the Admin area, populated with the detail and applied in the Vivantio New Ticket screen by selecting the template from a drop-down box.

When logging a Ticket, the only details the user is required to complete are the caller details.
