Ticketing > Edit Fields

Edit Fields lets you create and/or edit fields shown on tickets. Seven field types are available. Fields are associated with the entire ticket (as opposed to each note of the ticket). Use field to hold data items you need to collect for all tickets. Three mandatory fields exist that may not be removed from the system. They are:

• Category - A customizable list of trouble ticket categories (such as Printer Problem).
• Status - State of the current ticket (Open, Hold, Closed)
• Priority - High, Normal, Low
