SERVICE MANAGER SERVICE DESK OVERVIEW

June, 2011

Service Desk - Overview2

The Service Desk module will serve as the primary entry point for logging and tracking all incoming interactions to the IT Help Desk.

IT Help Desk Agents will close the interaction record if the issue is resolved on the first contact.

An Incident Ticket will be created from the interaction if the issue is a service disruption and cannot be resolved by the initial interaction taker.

If the interaction is considered an incident by the agent, they can categorize the ticket as an “incident”; regardless of whether the interaction is escalated to an Incident, the “incident” categorized interaction will be considered an incident for reporting purposes

An Incident Ticket will not be created for every interaction. Interactions closed without a related incident should be considered and reported as a “First Level Resolution”.

Agents will have the ability to save Interactions

When a related incident is closed, the incident’s resolution information will be added to the related interaction record.
