# Ticket Resolution

This guide outlines a technician or engineer's process for working on a ticket, from creation to resolution. Tickets follow a specific workflow, which are the steps or guidelines to follow when resolving a ticket, request, or problem.

**NOTE:** This demonstration will outline a default ticket workflow process implemented in Infraon Infinity. A comprehensive understanding can be gained by exploring the **“Ticket Workflow”** module under **“Infraon Configuration -> Infraon Automation -> Workflow -> Ticket.”**

## Ticket Workflow

<img src="/files/sjehxtOO28lRudsTt7AR" alt="Right pointing backhand index" data-size="line"> An automated email acknowledging ticket creation is sent to the end user. Email content can be customized using available macros.

<img src="/files/M16gSZ0R0bxZAAcbsAIt" alt="Right pointing backhand index" data-size="line">The ticket transitions to the **“In-Progress Analysis”** state. This phase may include sub-statuses like **“In-Progress Escalated”** for elevated issues.

This outlines the standard ticket workflow. The following sections will detail how this workflow is implemented within the tool and technicians' specific actions when assigned a ticket.

## Ticket Handling

In case of escalation, the status is updated to **“Escalated.”**
