			<description><![CDATA[Yes. Creating a ticket using incoming emails is a default feature that tussom offers. There are different approaches that one may leverage based on business requirements -<br />
<br />
<ul class="mycode_list"><li>One common incoming email id for all customers/end users to create tickets.<br />
</li>
<li>Different incoming email ids for different customers or to be assigned directly to the 2nd Level or 3rd Level.<br />
</li>
<li>One common incoming email id but assigning to 2nd Level or 3rd Level based on Subject or Content or Sender of the email.<br />
</li>
</ul>
<br />
tussom offers any of the above approach to be configured.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[According to RACI (Responsible, Accountable, Consulted and Informed) model, there can be only one person who should be accountable to resolve the ticket.<br />
<br />
Multiple team members can work on a single Incident and update; however, only one person who the ticket is assigned to, will be able to resolve the Incident. tussom provides a mechanism to capture the efforts log automatically so that one can know how long different Team members have worked on the ticket individually. A report can also be generated to know even the duration the ticket was in for a specific status when the Team members worked on it.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[An Incident Template is a template that helps to save time while submitting incidents and assists to do so in a faster way. Usually, every organization has some tickets that are frequently submitted by its end users. The tussom Administrator can create templates for such incidents by configuring appropriate category, summary, description etc.<br />
<br />
Once the template is saved, its name appears in the list of templates for end users and Support Engineers, depending on the roles and permissions. They can simply select the template from the dropdown, thereby getting all the configured values automatically populated and saving time to type the details while creating an incident.<br />
<br />
Once the values are populated, the end user or Support Engineer can still overwrite the values populated in the fields. For example, Description field can be used to further explain the issue or so.]]></description>
