Which of the following documentation practices best facilitates troubleshooting and ensures another technician can resume work on a ticket without confusion?
Using personal abbreviations and shorthand that only the original technician understands
Copy-pasting long log files verbatim into the notes field without explanation
Writing in clear, concise language that avoids jargon while recording the issue, actions taken, and current status
Filling out a standard template but providing only the ticket title and no additional details
Using clear, concise language that avoids unnecessary jargon while listing the problem, the steps taken, and the current status gives any technician enough context to continue work or close the ticket. Copy-pasting logs without explanation, relying on personal shorthand, or providing only minimal details forces later readers to guess what happened, slowing resolution.
