Daimler Trucks Technical Support Dashboard
The new dashboard will show a person at the service location a view of all open tickets with
Daimler Trucks Technical Support. Tickets will be displayed from the dealer location in which
the user ID is assigned to.

From Date: This field will show the date to search tickets from. This is an editable field. The
default time range will be three (3) months.

current date.
Search Tickets: Tickets can be searched by Reference Number, VIN, Serial Number (Last 6 of
VIN), or Engine Serial Number. This search feature will load a new page.
A new feature also included in the dashboard is a graph chart of tickets for the location. These

searching. This will be located under the graph section.

A user can search any field under Reference number, Ticket Summary, VIN/Serial, Created Date,
Status, or workgroup. As a user continues to type, the results will continue to filter down.
Matching results will become highlighted and non-matches will be hidden in the background.
The My Tickets section can also be exported and downloaded to Excel, CSV, PDF, or copied to
clipboard. These options are located on the right side of the page, just above the “Workgroup”
option.
