Navigating the Software
The below image is your global ticket view, for any screen you have that contains tickets (be it opportunities, sales, ticket, projects or otherwise) it will look similar to this.
There are many elements that can be hidden by agent, team or role. This gives you the power to concentrate on your own work and not get distracted looking at others, or, gives you the power to have a view of everyone's to see the bigger picture.
