Module 2 · The tools and the writing Lesson 4 of 15

Ticketing systems: states, owners and handoffs

Worked example

A handoff note with the reproduction steps, what you already ruled out and what you need next lets the next person act without contacting the customer. That habit is the difference between a queue that moves and one that loops.

Your practice task

Write a handoff note for a problem you could not solve, naming what you already checked and why.

Do this before moving on. Reading a solution teaches the shape of it; typing it teaches you.

Key takeaway

Every ticket has a state, an owner and a history. A handoff that repeats the history rather than pointing at it is what makes a customer explain their problem for the fourth time.
