supportbilletter

Supportbilletter are records maintained by a support organization to track customer inquiries, issues, or requests. Each ticket documents the problem, request, or incident, along with metadata such as ticket ID, customer contact, category, priority, status, assignee, creation and update timestamps, and related notes. They enable teams to coordinate work, maintain a history, and measure performance.

Tickets can be created through multiple channels: email, web portal, chat, phone. Some systems auto-create tickets from alerts or error messages. Once created, tickets are classified and assigned to appropriate agents or teams based on category and priority.

Lifecycle: open/new, in progress, awaiting user or external input, resolved, closed. Many organizations use triage, escalation, and SLA-driven workflows. Priorities combine impact and urgency; service level agreements define target response and resolution times. Escalation paths ensure slow progress is accelerated.

Relation to IT service management: incidents, service requests, problems, and changes. Tickets can be linked to knowledge base articles and work logs. Metrics include first response time, mean time to resolution, backlog, aging, and customer satisfaction.

Tools and best practices: modern ticketing systems integrate with chat, email, and knowledge bases; use templates, automatic routing, and status updates; maintain clear categorization; perform regular reviews; ensure data privacy and retention.
