Configuring Pending Reasons

The Analysts need to specify a Pending Reason when they change the status of an Incident to Pending. The status Pending means that some information or response is required from the End User to further investigate the Incident. You can define the Pending Reasons for Incidents for a Tenant based on the organization’s requirements.

To configure Pending Reasons:

1. Select Incident > Configuration > Incident Masters > Pending Reason.
2. On the PENDING REASON page, click ADD NEW on the ACTIONS panel.
3. Select the Tenant and type in the Pending Reason in the Pending Reason text box. If you select the Active check box, the Pending Reason becomes an available option in the Pending Reason list on the other pages of the application.
4. Click SUBMIT. A new Pending Reason is configured.
