Jason, Miachael, Yan, Kevin, Raed, Tyler & Drew,<br><br>I will certainly mail each of you a copy of both the User's Guide as well as the Queue Admin Guide. You must keep in mind that this documentation is tailored towards the way we do things here at LBNL. We have over 100 Queues that are used to support Application Projects/Systems/Support. In most cases, we have a WorkFlow process that includes Review & Approval of requests before being moved to the support Queue as well as QA procedures that allow for separate approval of QA test results (by another team or the requestors, etc) before migration to production & Resolution. That means I the documentation will be referring to Ticket Status values we added, Custom Fields & Scrips created for these processes.<br>
<br>As long as you guys plan to rip out what you don't need, it can be useful as a baseline of instruction on understanding terminology, privileges, notification scrips, searching & reporting (including dashboards), and on.<br>
<br>I hope it will be useful for you.<br><br>I'll be sending them out in a couple of hours.<br><br>Kenn<br>LBNL<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Apr 19, 2011 at 1:40 PM, Jason Ledford <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:jledford@biltmore.com">jledford@biltmore.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
