What is a ticket?

Represents a customer support or service request. Tickets live in status columns and can be managed on a board.

Key fields

  • Title, description, status, and position (for board ordering).
  • Board columns map to statuses; tickets are ordered within each column.
  • Link contacts or companies for context; attach tasks for follow-up work.

Creating and updating

  • From the board or table, create a new ticket. Drag/drop to change order and status.
  • Assign to a teammate, add notes, and link the customer’s contact/company.
  • Use tasks for internal follow-ups tied to the ticket.

Good practices

  • Keep titles action-oriented and include customer/account context.
  • Maintain a small, clear set of statuses to reduce friction and ensure SLA tracking.
  • Keep the board tidy by closing or moving tickets promptly.

Common workflows

  • Route tickets by status/column (e.g., New, In Progress, Waiting, Done).
  • Trigger automations when a ticket enters a resolution status (notifications, surveys).
  • Generate workload reports by status and assignee using the board data.
