Manually assign ticket to a group

We are VERY new to WHD, and trying to make our system flow as follows:
-Client opens new ticket with required information.
-All new tickets will automatically go to the "Help Desk" group

-A Tech from within the "Help Desk" group will assign the ticket to the appropriate Group

From what I am seeing, the only way to assign a ticket to a Group, is to tie the Request Type to a Group, and to select the appropriate Request Type from there.

Problem with this is we may multiple Groups working the same Request Type.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

  • The way that we have it set up, we have three groups in tiers: Level 1, Level 2, Manager. The techs are all assigned in Level 1, but then the ticket can be escalated to its appropriate category by any tech. Hope that helps!    

  • So if the tiers have to be configured within that Group, that wouldn't work, because we have different groups that a ticket would need to go to, i.e:
    Networks
    Servers
    Web

    Application Support

    However, if changing the tier would also change the Group, that would definitely work, but I don't know WHD well enough to know if that can be done.

    Or am I looking at wrong?





  • Hi! From what I have been doing... Each group has their tiers i.e. Network level 1, network level 2, group manager. If a ticket needs to be reassigned, based on what I have learned and experienced that it can be reassigned to another group. Is this what you are trying to do?

  • Hello, and thank you for that! So you're saying a ticket CAN be reassigned to a different group, but the only way I see to do that is by changing the Request Type. The only thing I can change within the assigned Tech Group is the Escalation. My noob eyes do not see a way to manually assign the group, only the tech
