From here, user can get to know how the notification works for the ticketing. There are basically four types on which the notification works:
- If there is no assignee assigned at the time of raising the ticket, the created ticket will be reflected under Open Ticket and mail will be sent to all user group (keeping all the user in TO). Another email will be sent to the reported person.
- If a group head is assigned in Manage Ticket, the created ticket will be reflected under Open Ticket and mail will be sent to group head including all user group in CC. Another email will be sent to the reported person.
- If an assignee is assigned as well as group head is there at the time of raising the ticket, the created ticket will be reflected under Assigned Ticket and mail will be send to assignee and group head including all user group in CC. Another email will be sent to the reported person.
- If an assignee is assigned at the time of raising the ticket, the created ticket will be reflected under Assigned Ticket and mail will be sent to assignee including all user group in CC. Another email will be sent to the reported person.
Along with email, user can also get notifications from other sources as explained below:
- SMS: If a user wants the notification to be sent through SMS, this can also be configured through the application.
- Push Notification: If the user wants push notifications, this can also be configured through the application.
If a user raising the ticket does not want to get ticket email notification, they can uncheck Notify Reported By option in the Raise Ticket screen.
