Ticket statuses in Zendesk help track the progress of a support request. There are six standard statuses: New, Open, Pending, On-hold, Solved, and Closed. Each status represents a different stage in the ticket's lifecycle, from initial receipt to final resolution. For instance, 'New' indicates a ticket has been received but not yet assigned, while 'Solved' means the issue has been resolved. Understanding these statuses helps manage and prioritize support tasks effectively. For more information, visit theZendesk help article.
