Tickets by Source

Tickets by Priority


This chart gives you an overview of the severity of tickets that get assigned to the selected department. It can be used to find out if the department has been receiving standard questions or critical tickets over a period of time.

Too many high priority tickets

Go to the Department at a glance report and see which if the high priority tickets are distributed to a particular Department.
