Ticket Protocol

Under the menu item ’Protocol' actions and changes that have taken place on the respective ticket are documented. Here you can see, for example, which properties have changed since the tick was received. The log entries are displayed in chronological descending order.

What activities are logged?

  • Changes to subject, customer, channel, agent, group, status, priority, type, and ticket tags.

    Note: Changes to custom ticket fields are not logged.

  • Merge and split tickets
  • Mark tickets as spam
  • Restoring spam tickets

A protocol entry contains the following:

  • Initiator of the action/change: If the initiator is a user, the user name is shown. In the case of entries based on rules, no initiator is shown.

  • Timestamp when the action/change was executed.

  • The action/change performed.
    If an action has been performed, it is indicated - e.g. 'Action: Split' means that the ticket has been split or 'Spam: yes' means that the ticket has been marked as spam.
    If a change has been made, the new value is indicated - e.g. 'Priority: high' means that the ticket's priority has been changed to 'high'.

    For changes in status and agent, the changed status/agent shows in brackets the time the ticket has spent in this status/was assigned to this agent. For example, after changing the status from 'New' to 'In Progress', you will see in brackets a time stamp next to the status 'New' in the protocol entry - e.g. Status: New (1m 18s) which means that this ticket spent 1 minute and 18 seconds in the status 'New'.
