How to Submit a Help Ticket

How to submit a tech request

To submit a help request is very simple. All it requires is an e-mail account. We request that you do not stray from the format that is being presented in this document.

  1. To begin open your e-mail program (ie. GMaill, Mail, Outlook, etc.)
  2. Please fill out the e-mail as follows. The picture below is an example
    1. Make the email out to yourschoolsite@losd.co (please find your sites address at the bottom of this document)
    2. For the subject line please put : “Tech Request”
    3. In the body of the e-mail please put the following information:
  • Requester’s Name
  • Room number or department
  • Description of problem/ help request
  • Best time  to stop by



Checking or updating a request

Once the e-mail has been sent you should receive a response in about 5-10 minutes confirming that the ticketing system received your request. This e-mail will provide you with your ticket number and a link to view the status of your request. Also through this link you have the ability to send a message and update your request.

You will also receive e-mail updates from the ticketing system any time your ticket has been updated or closed.

Rules for the Ticket System
  • Please do not submit maintenance requests, this system is for technology only.
  • Do not submit any requests for purchases, go to your sites administration for that.
  • Any requests for installing new software or hardware must be submitted by your principal. However, reinstallation or troubleshooting of existing software and hardware may be submitted by the end user.
  • Once a ticket has been closed, please do not respond with thank you's. While we appreciate it, all it does is reopen the ticket. Only respond to a closed ticket if you find the issue has not been resolved.
  • If you fix an issue yourself after opening a ticket, there is no need to submit another ticket, simply go to your ticket via the link you were provided in the e-mail confirmation where you can close the ticket yourself.
