OK, as they say in the South, "Here's your problem". Always use the web interface (when possible) to create tickets. That's the only way to ensure that they have all of the minimally required information to be able to work the ticket, even at a Tier 1 level. If you use email or phone, someone will have to call you back to get that information, and that's potentially a lot of time wasted. One thing I do sometimes is create the bare bones of the ticket on the web, and THEN go back, while the SLA clock is ticking, collect necessary additional info and logs, and append them to the ticket. It doesn't buy me much time, but every little bit helps. Rick _____
