Ticket reminder (ticket snooze)

Ticket reminders reopen tickets later. This is useful when you want to work on a ticket at a later time.

Important: If the ticket status is Open with the reminder set, the function won't work. A ticket reminder removes the ticket from your "Unsolved" filter (where New and Open tickets are) to have it reappear when you need it again. 

On a Pending, On-hold or Solved ticket, the reminder is set immediately without the need to submit the ticket. The reminder will reopen the ticket when the time comes.

Setting a reminder

  • To set a reminder click on the clock in ticket view and select a preset date/time or choose a custom date/time.
  • Submit the ticket as Pending, On-hold or Solved before or after setting the reminder.

Tip: Consider setting your default action on submit as Solved, Pending or On-hold to ensure that reminders are assigned automatically when you make changes (ie, add a tag) to the ticket.

Cancelling a reminder

If there's an active reminder on a ticket, you can hover the clock to see its details.

To cancel a reminder click on the clock and select 'Cancel'.

Configuring presets

Click on the clock and scroll through the preset list.

Select 'Customize' at the bottom.

Select what presets you want to appear in the reminder menu.
