TeamDynamix: Using Ticket Templates

Summary

Ticket templates allow you to quickly create frequently encountered work items that do not occur on a routine schedule. For example, service desk technicians may want to have a routine ticket that is created whenever they receive a particular type of service request   

Ticket Templates can also be used to pre-fill request for change (RFC) tickets for changes that need to be frequently requested. Note: for Change Enablement, when using a template, a maintenance activity must still be created for each ticket.

Using a ticket Template

Task: To use a saved ticket template

Warning: Using a ticket Template overwrites any information already in the ticket. If you want to use a template, be sure to select the template first, before you add any notes to the ticket. 

Step 1 - In TDx Work Management , click the "+ Service Request Form" near the top of the page.

Step 2 (optional) - Select a specific Form from the first drop-down field. 

  • Note: Templates are only available to use on the Form specified in the template. If you do not see the templates you expect in Step 3, you may need to first select the applicable Form, then look again for the template.

Step 3 - Select the Template from the second drop-down field on the form, "Template".

Outcome

You should be able to use a ticket template.
