Hi, I want a customer to be able to escalate a ticket through the support portal, is this possible?
There isn't an out-of-the-box solution for this, so here's what I did:
-
I created a custom field called Escalation with a dropdown menu in the Ticket Field and then set it to be displayed and edit by requester
-
This then appears in the Self service portal.
-
If the user selects Yes, an additional field appears asking for the reason.

I then created a WF that triggered if the button was selected as YES and this emailed a specific agent or agent line manager
Hi! Yes, it’s possible, but it depends on your support system setup. You may need to enable an “Escalate” option in the portal or use a custom field/button. Check your system settings or ask your admin to help set it up.
