Ahmed,
Thanks. I did open a ticket with the Service Desk yesterday. The tech
at that time said exactly what I posted, requests submitted as a phone
contact will not appear in uss. And I just got a nice private reply
from Leo Sell, and he says the same thing.
Leo also re-forwarded me the message we got about this on 11 Aug.
Apparently, I was supposed to click on a link to take some training, but
if I clicked on every link for training that I get here then I would
never get any work done. So I tend to wait until I bump into a
roadblock that makes it relevant to me, and go from there. Thanks to
starting this thread, I got the training link, so I guess I should
explore this first.
I still think it weird that the "unified" system is not really unified.
And I will continue to ignore uss so that I can deal with all my
tickets in one place.
