Does anyone have a three level category list they are willing to share?  I want to revamp my two level category list while adding a third level.

Hi @OrlandoLocke 

Did you have a chance to join @dbargas for the AMA sessions during SMART 2022? 

Douglas discussed and gave pointers regarding categories usage in general. Here is the the main example shared in session:

His session is avavalble on demand simply sign-up to the event and you can watch it. 

 

Cheers,

Hi @OrlandoLocke, if you have questions please let me know. 

I don’t think I attended your session.  Can you please send me a link to the recording?

Ok, found and watched the recording of your session.  It was good, but very high level.

I am undertaking a category review from the last four years of categories from actual tickets.  My request was if someone had a category list they would be willing to share.   I want to use that as a starting point or foundation and build my actual categories on top of that foundation.  I would also like see a few examples of three levels of categories.

Level 1=Service, Level 2=Product, Level 3=Module

Level 1=ERP, Level 2=User Maintenance, Level 3=Password reset

Level 1=Client Software, Level 2=Outlook on Desktop, Level 3=Create a rule

Level 1=Equipment Issues, Level 2=Laptop, Level 3=Screen Broken

My goal is to use the first level of category be a reporting point.  For example, how many tickets did we have this month for ERP or for Equipment or for Infrastructure or for Development, etc.

I would love to see a few examples so I can decide what to use.

 

Thank you in advance for your help,

Orlando
