Ticket evaluation
When IXIA CCMS Customer Support evaluates a ticket, there are several possible scenarios:
- IXIA CCMS Customer Support resolves the issue identified on the ticket
- IXIA CCMS Customer Support determines the ticket is beyond standard support and transfers it to the Service queue
- IXIA CCMS Customer Support determines the ticket uncovered a software bug and enters it in the bug tracking tool
Resolved tickets
When MadCap Software answers your question or provides a solution to the
issue, you can review the solution identified on the ticket and determine whether or not it is
satisfactory. If so, close the ticket by moving it to the Closed
state or
request that IXIA CCMS Customer Support close it.
If you later encounter an outstanding issue during implementation of the ticket solution, you
can always re-open the ticket and then mention the problem. If you see only a number like
IXIA CCMS
7.4, that indicates IXIA CCMS Customer Support resolved the
problem in the identified build and moved your ticket is to a Resolved
state.
Tickets transferred to Service queue
Generally, IXIA CCMS Customer Support transfers a ticket to IXIASOFT Professional Services when IXIA CCMS Customer Support determines the solution requires either custom development, such as adding new functionality or enhancing existing functionality, or requires more detailed attention, such as integrating specializations or DITA Open Toolkit plugins.
At this point, IXIA CCMS Customer Support may complete an evaluation of the potential scope and associated costs and submit it to you. Any intervention requires an addition to the MadCap Software resource timetable and requires you to approve the associated Statement of Work (SOW) before MadCap Software addresses the ticket.
Tickets entered as a software bug
If a a software bug is the source of the issue for the ticket you opened, IXIA CCMS Customer Support creates a corresponding ticket in the Development team's bug tracking tool.
IXIA CCMS Customer Support then records the tracking number in the original OTRS ticket and
moves the ticket to the Dita-CMS: Reproduced
queue. Then, IXIA CCMS Customer Support informs you of the bug. When the Development team resolves the software bug,
IXIA CCMS Customer Support moves the ticket back to the Dita-CMS
queue and
sets it to a Resolved
state.
