1. basic information

Field of application

Znuny is used as a central ticket system to process inquiries efficiently. The system is used for the structured recording, tracking and answering of support requests.

Who is it suitable for?

The ticket system is suitable for employees or entire departments who work together on a topic and require structured filing and tracking.

The ticket system is aimed at teams or departments with at least 5 to 10 people who actively process incoming requests.

New areas will only be added after an individual review of requirements and needs. If you are interested, please contact us using the contact details below.

Responsibility

The IT Service Center is responsible for the operation, maintenance and further development of the ticket system.

2. brief description

Description

Znuny is a web-based helpdesk system that manages requests in a structured manner in the form of tickets. Each request is assigned to a ticket that is processed by the responsible employee. This means that requests can be documented in a traceable manner and processing statuses can be viewed at any time.

Alternatives

Group mailboxes, for example, can be used as an alternative. However, these offer less transparency about processing statuses and no automated tracking of requests.

3. main functions

Functions

  • Ticket creation: Requests can be submitted online via a form or directly by e-mail to the corresponding e-mail address. Tickets can also be created independently on behalf of users or emails can be sent to users.
  • View processing status: People with the appropriate authorization can access their open and closed tickets at any time.
  • Communication in the ticket: queries and responses are documented directly in the ticket so that all information is collected centrally.
  • Categorization: Tickets are automatically or manually assigned to specific subject areas so that they can be processed by the responsible teams.

4th deployment scenario

Practical examples

  • A student reports problems when logging into a learning platform and receives feedback with suggested solutions via the ticket.
  • A member of staff requests support in the event of a service malfunction. The ticket is handed over to the person responsible and processed.
