A good ticket saves a lot of back-and-forth. Please include:
- What's wrong, in one sentence, as the subject (e.g. "Can't print to the first-floor printer").
- What you expected to happen, and what happened instead.
- The exact error message, ideally a screenshot.
- When it started, and whether anything changed around then.
- Who is affected: just you, your team, or everyone? This sets how urgently we treat it.
- What you've already tried.
- The best way to reach you, and when you're available.
If it's stopping a lot of people working, or affecting customers, say so clearly or phone the service desk: we treat that as a major incident.
