Properties

Under Properties, set a name and time zone for the recurring ticket to run with.

Note


You can create a Ticket Subject later on which will be what appears in the helpdesk for Agents to see, so this name is only for keeping track of the Recurring Ticket in Admin.

Recurring Schedule

In Recurring Schedule, set the date and time for the first ticket to be created.

Under the Recurring Schedule sub-heading, set up the schedule for the tickets to recur.

Use the dropdown menu to select the frequency, e.g. Once daily, Twice Weekly. And the checkboxes to select which days of the week you want the tickets to be created on.

You can pre-set the users to be associated with the recurring ticket and a ticket will be created per user specified.
