Ticket management
Each service desk ticket belongs to a project. Tickets are created either by agents directly in the dashboard, by customers through the public portal, or via helpdesk intake forms.
A clear, one-line description of the issue or request.
Full detail of the issue, steps to reproduce, or request context. Supports markdown formatting.
Bug, Feature Request, Question, or Other — helps route and filter tickets.
Critical, High, Medium, or Low. Used to determine SLA timers.
Open, In Progress, On Hold, Resolved, or Closed. Updated by agents.
A project member responsible for resolving the ticket.
The contact or customer who raised the ticket.
(Business) The company account associated with the reporter.
A linked PM sprint task. Provides full traceability from report to fix.
Files, screenshots, or logs attached to the ticket for context.
Ticket statuses
Newly created ticket, not yet assigned or in progress.
An agent is actively working on this ticket.
The issue has been addressed. Reporter can reopen.
Ticket is fully closed. No further action expected.
Waiting on reporter response or external dependency.
Priorities & SLA
Ticket priority controls urgency and, on Business plan, triggers SLA timers. SLA rules define the maximum time allowed from ticket creation to first response and resolution.
System down or data loss. Immediate response required.
Major functionality broken. Urgent resolution needed.
Significant issue with a workaround available.
Minor inconvenience. Resolved in normal course.
Reporters & contacts
A Reporteris the contact who raised a ticket. Reporters are separate from Decuga account users — they do not need a Decuga login. Reporters are stored in your project's contact list and can be associated with multiple tickets.
When a customer submits a ticket via the public portal, Decuga automatically creates a reporter record from their email. Agents can also create reporter records manually.
The reporter's display name.
Primary contact email. Used to link portal submissions to the reporter record.
(Business) Associate the reporter with a company account.
All tickets raised by this reporter, visible from their contact page.
Company accounts
Company accounts group reporters from the same organisation. This is essential for B2B support — see all tickets from a single customer at a glance, understand your relationship with each client, and track which companies generate the most support load.
The name of the client organisation.
Email domain used to auto-associate new reporters to the company.
All reporters associated with this company.
Count of unresolved tickets across all contacts in the company.
Linking tickets to PM tasks
Every ticket can be linked to one or more sprint tasks in the same project. This creates a traceable connection from a customer-reported issue to the engineering work that resolves it.
What linking provides
- ✓Engineers see the customer's original ticket context directly on the task.
- ✓Support agents see the task status (In Progress, Done) on the ticket.
- ✓Analytics track the ratio of linked tickets — a measure of how well support and engineering are connected.
- ✓When a task ships to Done, agents are notified and can resolve the linked ticket.
To link a ticket, open the ticket detail panel, click Link to task, and search for any task in the project. Linking works in both directions — you can also link from the task detail panel.
Service desk analytics
Service desk analytics are available on the Business plan and provide visibility into support team performance and ticket health.
