Dynamic fields

Dynamic ticket fields extend ticket data and are assigned to queues.

Overview

This page explains how to use Dynamic fields and describes its main effects. Test changes in a test environment first whenever they may affect existing tickets, permissions, notifications, or automations.

Typical workflow

  1. Create and edit a field. Open the relevant administration or action form, enter the required values, and save only after checking assignments and required fields.

  2. Delete a field. First check which existing records or users are affected. Where possible, deactivate entries instead of deleting them permanently.

  3. Assign a field to a queue. Open the existing record, change only the required fields, and check dependent assignments before saving.

  4. Assign fields from the queue view. Open the existing record, change only the required fields, and check dependent assignments before saving.

  5. Configure the data type and selection values. Perform the function in the designated form and immediately verify the result in the corresponding overview or on the affected ticket.

Notes

  • Visible menu items and actions depend on the signed-in agent’s group and program permissions.

  • Deactivated entries are often retained for existing tickets and reports, but are no longer available for new assignments.

  • After making changes, test at least one realistic use case with a user in the affected role.
