Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why am I unable to view/access a ticket in the Service Portal?

A: You are only able to view tickets for which you are either the requestor, or listed as a contact. If you are unable view/access a ticket the most likely causes are:

  • Cause: When the page initially loads only "open" tickets are displayed by default. Any ticket that has been completed/closed, or cancelled are not displayed.
    Solution: Use the Status class drop down and choose Select all, then click Search. This will cause all tickets that you have access to to be displayed. Optionally you can narrow down the result set by searching for a specific ticket number, title, etc.
  • Cause: The ticket search filters are too restrictive preventing any matches.
    Solution: Simplify the ticket search. For example if you know the ticket number, then only enter the ticket number in the ID field, set the Status Class field to [Select all], and select Include requests that I am listed as a contact on. Leave all other fields blank. Then click Search.
  • Cause: You are not the ticket's requestor, or listed as a contact.
    Solution: Ask the ticket's requestor, or existing contact, to add a comment to the ticket requesting that you be added as a contact so that the person/department that is working the ticket can add you as a contact. After the group working the ticket has added you as a contact it should become visible to you in the Service Portal.
