This section covers the process of managing an individual support ticket after it has been created. From the main "Manage Ticket" list, clicking any ticket ID opens a detailed view for conversation, updates, and history tracking.
Key Features
- Threaded Conversation: A chat-like interface to add comments and updates to a ticket.
- Property Updates: On-the-fly editing of a ticket's assignee, category, status, and priority.
- Audit History Log: A complete, read-only log of all changes and comments for accountability.
- File Attachments: Ability to add new files or screenshots to comments.
Ticket Conversation View
The main view for a ticket opens on the "Conversation" tab. This interface allows for clear communication between the ticket creator and the support assignee.
- Add Comment: Users can type a message in the "Comment" box and click the submit button. The new comment instantly appears in the thread.
- File Upload: A "Click To Upload" option allows users to attach relevant files or screenshots to their comments.
- Timestamped Log: Every comment is logged with the user's name and a timestamp, showing a clear history of communication.

Updating Ticket Properties
A dedicated panel on the left side of the screen allows users with the correct permissions to modify the ticket's core properties at any time.
- Ticket Assignee: Re-assign the ticket to a different user or support team.
- Ticket Category: Move the ticket to a more appropriate category.
- Status & Priority: Update the ticket's status (e.g., from "New" to "In progress") or change its priority (e.g., from "High" to "Medium").

Ticket History Log
By clicking the "History" tab, users can view a complete audit trail of the ticket's lifecycle. This log is read-only and provides a transparent record of all actions.
- Creation Record: Shows the ticket's original details, including creator, subject, and assignee, and when it was created.
- All Updates: Logs every comment added and every change made to the ticket's properties (like status, assignee, or priority).
