This article will describe how to submit an incident ticket to OIT in ServiceNow. If you have any issues submitting an incident ticket, contact the IT Service Desk at (334) 844-4944.

1. Navigate to auburn.edu/oit and click on “Report an Issue.”

2. You will be taken to the “Report an Issue” form. This form is used when something previously working is now broken or no longer performing.  This could be an application, an internet connection, your email, your phone, or any other University-related technology.

3. The contact information should autofill with the data associated with the individual filling out the form. If the individual filling out the form is not the user experiencing the issue, that information can be changed.  To change it, click the field for "who is experiencing this issue" and enter the Auburn user ID or the individual's name experiencing the issue.  Additionally, the preferred email address and phone number should autofill with the contact information associated with that user.  If it is not correct, that information can also be edited.

4. Next, you will provide details on the issue you are experiencing. Using the dropdowns, select the "type" of issue you are experiencing. 

5. Select “what” you are experiencing the issue with.

6. Select "how" this issue is affecting job functions.

7. Select "how many" people are affected by this issue.

8. Select the "service" that is being affected.

9. Enter the "location" (building and room number) where the issue is taking place.

10. Under "Incident Details", enter a short description of the issue in the first field and a longer, more detailed description in the second field.

11. If needed, you can add an attachment to the incident (i.e. screenshot). To add an attachment, click on the button "add attachments."

12. When you have completed the incident form, please review the information to ensure that everything is correct and no required field was missed.  Scroll back up to the top of the form and click the "Submit" button to complete the incident.

13. Once submitted, you will receive a confirmation email. When a comment is made on your incident ticket, you will receive email notification. Some of these comments will require a response from the user. We encourage you to check each email that you receive regarding your issue. When the incident is resolved, you will receive a resolution email.
