Why am I asked to write a ticket?


Writing a ticket has many advantages for both the user and the IT department:

  • A ticket will never be forgotten (a simple email might be).
  • A ticket is sent to every member of the IT, ensuring that someone always receives it, even if certain IT members are sick or on vacation.
  • A ticket is a good documentation for changes / bug fixes being implemented.
  • You don't have to know who is responsible for which service. IT will assign the ticket to a colleague who can help.
  • It makes the work of the IT department much more efficient as we are not interrupted by calls and visits.

Important: For urgent matters—such as a malfunctioning computer or an issue with an ongoing experiment where a participant is waiting—please feel free to visit us in person or call us.

Hint: For small requests, it's also fine to contact us via Minverva Messenger (IT channel).

How long will it take to process my ticket?


This depends on your request and the current workload of the IT department. Many (especially small) requests are processed within a few hours. More complex requests can take days or even weeks. We are doing our best to inform you as soon as possible if it will take longer.
