    Service Request

    There are 2 ways to get technical assistance:

    Everything begins with your Service Request.  Our staff prioritizes and manage their work queue using our ticketing system.  With that in mind, with a ticket number, you can check the status of your request online or via phone.

    If you call and leave a voice message (during the day or after hours), IS personnel will return your call and supply you with your Service Request number (SR#) if it's for a new service request, or we will provide you with status information about your existing request, if that is what you asked.

    When the work is completed, the Service Request Number is "closed" in the system. The "fix" will be documented in the Help Desk Support Center Solutions database for future reference. Each request is unique.  So every time you contact the Help Desk on another issue, you will receive a new and distinct number.  Likewise, if you are accessing the ticketing system online, you can log a new ticket for any new issue you wish to report, and that will cause a new ticket to be generated.
