The 6 most important functions for incident management and ticketing

icon-it-lizenz Central recording

Incidents and faults are systematically captured and documented in one place

 
icon-link-lt System linkage

Each incident is connected directly to the affected systems, services, locations, or assets in the CMDB

 
icon-it-inventory Responsibility assignment

Incidents are assigned to the responsible persons or teams, including full status tracking

 
icon-it-smarthphone Complete history

All processing steps, changes, and actions are fully documented throughout the incident lifecycle

 
icon-it-notifications System integration

The CMDB can be connected to external ticketing or workflow systems via API or add-ons

 
icon-api-lt Reporting

Incidents can be analyzed by status, root cause, affected systems, or time period — supporting both operations and audit requirements

 

Ticket and asset linking

Why is linking tickets and assets so important?

In many service desk environments, tickets exist in isolation from technical reality. i-doit bridges that gap with:

  • Direct connection between the incident and the affected assets
  • Faster understanding of the technical root cause
  • Fewer follow-up questions and coordination overhead
  • Better prioritization through clearly visible impact
  • Consistent documentation across the ticketing system and CMDB

ITIL-based incident management

How does ITIL-based incident management support structured fault handling?

i-doit enables structured incident capture in line with ITIL and presents incidents in their full technical context. Benefits include:

  • Transparent visualization of technical dependencies
  • Faster identification of cause-and-effect relationships
  • Better prioritization through visible service impact
  • Less uncertainty when handling complex faults
  • A solid foundation for problem and change management

SLA definition and monitoring

How can SLAs be defined and reliably monitored?

i-doit enables the structured capture and monitoring of SLAs. Agreements can be assigned directly to services, systems, contracts, or customers and evaluated in the context of incidents. This delivers:

  • Transparent monitoring of SLA targets
  • Better control over response and resolution times
  • Clear escalation triggers when thresholds are breached
  • Traceable evidence for customers and management
  • A reliable basis for service reviews and audits

Automated workflows

How do workflows automate incident handling?

i-doit enables the automated handoff of incidents to connected ticketing and workflow systems. Status changes, notifications, and escalations are triggered by rules, while i-doit remains the central data source. This means:

  • Fewer manual steps in incident handling
  • Consistent and reproducible processes
  • Faster response times through automation
  • Full traceability of all process steps
  • Better collaboration across IT, operations, and service teams

Comprehensive history

How is a continuous history built from ticket data and CMDB changes?

i-doit documents ticket information and CMDB changes in a continuous, connected record. Incidents, actions, and changes to systems or assets are permanently traceable and form a reliable knowledge base. Advantages include:

  • Complete traceability of incidents and changes
  • Better root cause analysis through technical context
  • Transparent documentation for reviews and audits
  • Sustainable learning from recurring faults
  • A reliable foundation for problem and change management
