Tell us what broke.

HELPFUL DETAIL

“Everything” is rarely the answer.

Tell us what happened, what you expected to happen, which device or service is involved, and what the screen actually says. Technical vocabulary is optional. Useful details are not.

“Nothing works” contains very little diagnostic information.

TICKET LIFECYCLE

Then what?

A support process should be slightly more sophisticated than yelling across the office until somebody wearing headphones looks concerned.

01 RECEIVE

The request enters the queue with the details, business impact, user information, and whatever meaningful description was supplied.

02 TRIAGE

Determine scope, urgency, affected systems, security implications, available workarounds, and whether “urgent” means urgent.

03 RESOLVE

Troubleshoot the problem, communicate with the user, coordinate vendors when necessary, and restore normal operations.

04 DOCUMENT

Record what happened, what fixed it, and anything that should change so the same issue becomes easier or less likely next time.

ONE LAST THING

Screenshots are beautiful.

Especially when they include the actual error message, the full window, and enough context to identify what application we are looking at.

PHOTO QUALITY A blurry picture of half the monitor taken from six feet away remains technically a screenshot’s distant cousin.
