Access Community

Community usually refers to a dashboard element or collaboration area that encourages end-user participation, communication, and interaction.

View Open Incidents

"View incident" often refers to the process of obtaining and evaluating the specifics and status of a ticket or incident report within a helpdesk system or incident management system. Organizations use incident management systems to monitor, handle, and address problems and occurrences that users or staff report.

View Resolved Incidents

Resolved Incidents refers to an occurrence that has been effectively handled, and the related issue or issue has been fixed. When an incident is resolved, the impacted IT service is back up and running normally, allowing the user or users who reported it to continue using it without any problems.
