Work Ticket views display Work Ticket records. A Work Ticket represents part of a Case scope, which is assigned to a responsible party (i.e., User) and scheduled. Work Tickets allow for more granular assignment and scheduling of the work activities contained within the scope of a Case. Work Ticket records contain basic details (e.g., Work Ticket Number, Description, Scheduled Time, etc.), information about the associated Case and, sometimes, Work Forms for the assigned User to populate. Each Work Ticket has a defined workflow, which dictates how the Work Ticket can move from one status to another. A Work Ticket's Workflow is defined by the Instance Administrator and determined by the associated Case's Category. That is, Work Tickets associated with different Case Categories may have different workflows.

Job Connect Maintenance (JCM) mode offers four different Work Ticket views, which allow the user to easily navigate Work Ticket records.

This article will cover the following topics related to Work Ticket views.
