  • Email Subject

    • The email subject is used in our ticket name in our support desk to identify your specific issue

      • Please use a short descriptive in the email subject to help distinguish your ticket from everyone else's and to avoid confusion

        • e.g. Teacher (Bob Smith) cannot login - Urgent is much better than Help needed

  • Email body/content

    • Please describe your problem with as much information as possible

      • e.g. For Student ST-65241 we can’t book the GE Course for 2 weeks from 4th May 2023 to 10th April 2023 is much better than Enrolment screen is not working

    • Please describe all the steps we need to follow to replicate the problem you are having

      • We test for most situations so it is likely you may have found a very specific problem that requires more complicated steps to reproduce

    • Please describe both the error but also what you expect to see

      • e.g. Finance for the Booking ID 2323 should be £2499.50 but the screen is showing incorrect as £2200.50 is much better than Finance is incorrect

    • Please describe the urgency of your request

      • If your issue is preventing you or a group of users please help us prioritise your request

      • Please also advise if your request is not urgent or ideally when you would like your issue resolved

        • This will help us assign our resource to those who really need it

  • Use screen shots where possible

    • A picture tells a thousand words and will help us see what you are seeing

  • Use URL links to the records in your Schoolworks

  • Pleases (and thanks in advance!)

    • Please send a new email, new subject line for your new request.

      • Please don’t forward a long email chain or discussions from multiple people as it may take longer for us to process or understand it, or we may ask you to resubmit a request

    • Please make further replies or follow ups regarding the same issue with the TICKET-XXXX in the subject

      • This avoids creating multiple new tickets for the same issue
