working with client's ticketing system

Priyank Rao

Hi everyone,

We are using a different ticketing system and forwarding the tickets to our vendor who uses Jira Service Management.

We just triage the ticket for our customers so its important that the ticket is forwarded to the vendor as the need arises.

The ticket contains the incident number in subject line.

Issue is the response from Jira Service Management is like a note coming to our ticketing system. We don't get the option to reply like an email. The note has the URL for us to open the ticket in Jira and check the status or put our notes. We wish that it comes as an email so that we can reply to it.

I was wondering if Jira has any option to sort this out. 

We were getting the updates and it was creating a separate ticket but we fixed the issue by adding the ticket in the subject line and keeping it together.

Please help.

I am assuming that your service desk is just sending an email to the vendor who is using Jira service management.  Jira service management sends emails to the address that it receives the email from.  I am assuming that your service desk is receiving these emails and consuming them into your ticketing system.  You should be able to communicate on the issues via your ticketing system.  We have vendors that do the same thing.  You will need to work with the vendor to ensure that everything is setup correctly for your reply's to be captured correctly and to ensure that you get the responses back on your end.
