Ticket Origination Type
Currently there appear to be 3 ticket types.
- Email - If a customer emails in a ticket is generated. Denoted by envelope
- Alert - If a ticket is raised from an alerts (Server offline, disk space). Denoted by exclamation
- Phone - Every ticket manually created is assumed to be from a phone call. Denoted by a handset
We generate certain tickets from other alerts, either from 3rd party monitoring or just on-site/on-device observations. When logging these tickets it appears it came from a call but it did not.
The customer receives an email that THEIR issue has been logged but they know nothing about it. Atera needs to be aware this was a proactive ticket and, if it MUST send an alert to the customer it should convey that we have logged a ticket from observations otherwise this generates calls/emails to say they haven't logged a ticket.
Nice! The feature you requested is being reviewed by our product team. We’ll keep an eye on the number of votes, and let you know if a decision is reached to implement. Thank you for being a partner in our process!

I was surprised that there is no dropdown/field that lets us specify the ticket source, this is a staple feature in all helpdesk/ticket platforms !
I'm sure they will add it... would be nice (if they read this) for them to allow us to define additional source types as well. This would cover your needs and a lot of others.
