  3. User Support Tool Users Staff – Individual user support representative. E.g. – LANCE support representative Department – EOSDIS project to which user support requests are associated. E.g. – LANCE, ECHO, Sensing our Planet, etc. Team – Grouping of Staff user accounts granted permissions to view and respond to requests in one or more Departments. E.g. – ECHO Operations Team, Earthdata Support Team, USWG

  4. Customizations • Workflow States • Tickets are transferred (workflow of events) from the “Open”to “Closed”. • Tickets can move between any state as needed. • Important: A request status should be updated to accurately reflect it’s current response state. • Auto Close Configuration • Tickets may be automatically closed after matching configured criteria for a period of time. • Support Requests will be automatically closed when a ticket remains in the “Waiting for User” state for 48 hours without a response. • Tickets are re-opened automatically if the user does respond.

  5. Customizations (cont’d) • Ticket Types • General – A general question or request for information and/or assistance. • Issue – A system or content problem. • Feedback – General feedback about a website or product. • Data/Science – A specific data or science application related question.. • Ticket Priorities • Low – minimum to no impact • Normal – routine occurrence of issue • High – needing more than normal response • Critical – issue impact critical it system requirements • Custom Fields • User • NASA Agency ID (Optional) • EOSDIS URS ID (Optional) • Ticket • Referral Webpage (Optional)

  6. Customizations (cont’d) • Service Level Agreements • Support Requests are assigned a service level agreement (SLA) to monitor response time and ensure that requests do not go unnoticed. • An “SLA Schedule” defines the days and times within which support representatives are expected to respond. • Configured SLA Schedules • 9 X 5 Workday – Mon–Fri; 8:00AM–5:00PM • 11X5 Extended Workday – Mon–Fri; 8:00AM–7:00PM • 24X7 Attended Operations – Sun–Sat; 12:00AM–12:00AM • An “SLA Plan” determines how much time may pass before a response is “overdue” or before the ticket has taken too long to be resolved. • <ADD SCREENSHOT LIKE THE SAMPLE SHOWN TO THE RIGHT> • Time “passes” only within the hours specified by the associated SLA Schedule.

  7. Customizations (cont’d) • Service Level Agreements (Cont’d) • Configured SLA Plans (Thresholds) • General Support • Overdue – 24 hours • Resolution Due – 72 hours (not used) • Time-Sensitive Support • Overdue – 4 hours • Resolution Due – 24 hours (not used) • Tickets that reach their configured SLA Plan thresholds may trigger escalations to trigger further action, including automated notifications, assignments priority changes, etc. • Configured Escalations • Overdue Ticket • Notification sent to entire department.

  8. Customizations (cont’d) • Automatic Notifications • Notifications may be configured to notify specific individuals when a ticket is modified or changed. Currently only Kayako administrators have permissions to create and/or modify notifications. • Configured Notifications • Ticket Assigned – The user to whom a ticket has been assigned receives an email with the details of the assigned ticket. • Ticket Created – All members of the ticket’s department are notified when a ticket is manually or automatically created. • Ticket Transferred – All members of the ticket’s new department are notified when a ticket’s department is changed. • Ticket Updated – If a user replies, or a note is added, to a ticket that is assigned to a support representative, an email is sent to the assignee. • Views • Customized ticket “views” may be created to determine which columns are displayed when viewing a ticket list. • Currently, a default view is provided and only Kayako administrators have permissions to create and/or modify views.

  9. Customizations (cont’d) • Filters • Customized ticket “filters” may be created to display a filtered listing of tickets matching configured criteria. • Currently, default filters are provided and only Kayako administrators have permissions to create and/or modify filters. • Email Templates • Emails sent to end users are generated based on configurable templates within the administrator interface. • Emails sent to staff as a part of automated notifications are _not_ configurable via templates. Modifications can be made in the source. • An enhancement request for Kayako exists to allow this. • Customized Email Templates • Autoresponder – Messages sent to end users immediately upon receipt of a support request. • Staff User Reply – Sent to a user when a user support representative replies. • Staff User Forward – Sent to target recipients when a user support representative forwards an email.
