[NOT A BUG] Ticket order listings


Recommended Posts

Please delete the option under: Setup >General Settings >Support >"Ticket Reply List Order"

Since this is now controlled from the ticket area it's self, by clicking on "Last Reply" in the top column.

 

This threw me for a loop simply because I'm used to setting it from the "Setup" tab.

I could care less which is finally decided but there in no need in having the setting even there under "Setup" tab if the sort order is going to be decided from the client support screen it's self.

 

I can see how some support tech might like to have the old tickets first (NO I can't) but if they want it they should be able to select it and this new way does allow either way for any tech to see it. BUT! The site owner or head each should decide which way it always starts up, and starting by listing the "OLDEST" ticket first is NOT (IMO) the best choice, and this is how it now operates.

 

I think the compromise here is to leave the setting to select the order of the tickets under the "Setup" tab which would be decided by the head technician. Then also leave the ability to change the sort order from the ticket page for whatever tech is viewing the tickets to decide how he want to view them.

 

Before that can even happen the "old" selection method must first take precedence and now it has NO EFFECT 'what so ever' so something needs done with it. Either remove it entirely or make it the default for ticket order.

Nothing has changed as far as I can tell?

 

The setting Ticket Reply List Order in Setup > General Settings > Support applies specifically to the order ticket messages/replies are displayed when viewing an individual ticket.

 

It is not intended to determine the order of tickets as displayed in the main ticket list. This is controlled by the Last Reply column heading, and by default is oldest to newest. You can reverse this by clicking the column heading for Last Reply any time you want. And the order you choose will remain for the entire duration of your session.

This is not the case Matt. I emailed Chris and he confirmed it could be replicated. If I set last reply in the ticket view and refresh my browser it reverts the order.

not fixed - 5.2.3 by default the ticket list shows the LAST ticket opened at the botton. Clicking on the 'LAST REPLY' column changes it to show the last ticket at the top (as it has always been) previously. However, refreshing the page (which I have set to do automatically after 1 minute) reverts it back again.

 

1) why was the default changed to something no-one wants or uses

2) this is a bug as it was working normally and correctly by default

3) the revert option does not last for the entire session but for 1 page refresh.

 

This needs acknowledged and addressed please.

I think I've found a 'strange' fix for this. (until the bug is fixed properly)

 

1) click on LAST REPLY column header to show tickets the way you want

2) click on SUPPORT > Support Tickets > All Active Tickets

 

For some reason this keeps the order for the session. (Not doing step 2 reverts it back).
