Customer Support Ticket Configuration
Customer Support Ticket Configuration
Screen Overview
The Customer Support Ticket Configuration screen is used to define how customer support tickets are routed and processed across systems, facilities, and business entities (such as occupancies, vendors, integrators, or companies). Administrators can filter by scope, review existing configurations in a results grid, and create, edit, or delete configuration records that determine the default workflow and assignment for new support tickets in BluSKY.

Usage Instructions & Examples
-
Filter and Review Existing Configurations
- Select a System.
- Optionally narrow by Facility, Occupancy, Vendor, Integrator, or Company.
- Click Submit to load results.
- Review the grid columns (System, Facility, Entity, Workflow, etc.). If column names are truncated, drag the column edge to expand.
-
Create a New Configuration for a Facility or Occupancy
- In the filter panel, select the System and, if applicable, the Facility and/or Occupancy you want to target.
- Click Create.
- Complete the configuration form (e.g., choose the Workflow and assignment/assignee details).
- Save. The new configuration appears in the grid after Submit.
-
Modify an Existing Configuration
- Use the filters and click Submit to find the target row.
- Select the row and click Edit.
- Update fields such as Workflow or assignment criteria.
- Save and verify the changes in the grid.
-
Remove a Configuration
- Locate the configuration via filters and Submit.
- Select the row and click Delete.
- Confirm the deletion when prompted.
System Behaviors and Edge Cases
- Dropdown lists are context-sensitive; available Facility/Entity options update based on the selected System.
- If no results match the filters, the grid will display an empty result set.
- Column headers may appear truncated on smaller screens; widen the column to view the full label.
- Edit and Delete actions require a single row selection; they are disabled until a row is highlighted.
- Reset reverts all filters to defaults (e.g., All), but does not automatically reload the grid until Submit is clicked.
- Refresh icons next to filters repopulate choices without altering current selections in other filters.
Permissions
- Access is typically limited to administrative roles with rights to Setup > Customer Support Ticket Configuration.
- Create/Edit/Delete actions require write permissions for support ticket configuration within the selected System/Facility scope.
- Users without edit permissions can filter and view configurations but cannot modify them.
Linked Workflows
- Customer Support ticket creation (e.g., via Requests > Customer Support) uses the configuration defined here to select the appropriate Workflow and assignment.
- Workflow definitions referenced in this screen are maintained in the Workflows module; ensure workflows are published/active before assigning them here.
- Entity administration (Systems, Facilities, Occupancies, Vendors, Integrators, Companies) is managed in their respective setup screens and feeds the filter lists used here.
