FAQs
1) How do I confirm who changed a ticket’s status?
Open the History tab for the ticket. Each entry displays the actor, timestamp, and the exact status transition.
2) Can I see which Macro affected a ticket?
Yes. When a Macro is applied, the History log records the resulting field changes (e.g., status, tags). Use this to verify macro-driven updates.
3) Does the History tab show participant additions?
Yes. Add Participants events are logged, including who added them and when.
4) Can administrators use Ticket History for audits?
Absolutely. The History tab provides a reliable audit trail across system and custom fields, helpful for SLA reviews, escalations, and compliance checks.
5) What if multiple changes occur at once?
Bulk updates (such as from Macros or automation) appear as discrete logged changes, allowing you to trace each field modification individually.
