Hi,

Thanks for your answer. What you say is, more or less, what I understand.

So, my question is: Why does OTRS asks for Impact _and_ for Priority when you create a ticket (AgentTicketEmail)? Is the Priority field ignored and the Tickedt Priority set as a function of Criticality and Impact?

Hello,

Each service has a Criticality associated, that's the Urgency of a ticket
Every time you create a ticket, you're supposed to define the Impact of it
Depending on those two values, a Priority is set from the Matrix.

I hope this little explanation clarifies your doubt

Hello,

We use OTRS::ITSM and I don’t understand the Criticality – Impact – Priority matrix. I’ll try to explain what I understood so you can see my errors:

 

I understand that there are 2 variables: Impact, due to the service, and Criticality, due to the incident. I can have an Incident with high Impact and low Criticality (e.g., a broken webserver that won’t make the correct salutation to my clients) and an Incident with low Impact and high Criticality (e.g., a server, that only our less important employee uses, is broken and doesn’t work at all). This way, you can get the Priority of an Incident as a combination of Impact and Criticality.

 

But, in the AgentTicketEmail, OTRS asks for the Impact and for the Priority. Is then Criticality a combination of Impact and Priority? Is Priority a misstranslation of Criticality?

 

Can anyone explain the Criticality – Impact – Priority Matrix to me?
