Editing/Updating/commenting on a ticket

 - Editing a ticket to change a status or add additional information will not notify the requestor of any changes/updates.

-Updating a ticket to update a status/comment will notify the requestor of the change if you leave the requestor’s name in the ‘Notify’ area.  When updating, comments are required for some statuses.

-Commenting on a ticket to a person or a group will notify the group.  When one user comments back, responses to the user will only go to that user and not to the group.  To comment information only for CTS personnel and hidden from the requestor, checkmark ‘Make comments private (only visible to CTS Ticket users).’
