tickets are automatically deleted

atobias over 5 years ago

I recently noticed that closed/completed tickets seem to be deleted from the database at some point in time. I've not been able to find any documentation or information indicating when or how this happens. I know that they disappear less than a year after being closed because we've only been using SD for a year and tickets are gone. Is there a way to stop this automatic deletion, or to change the time frame, or to archive tickets somewhere else?

As it turns out, there is a setting under Setup - Setup - Privileges - Requests Archive Requests: was set to yes And days closes was set to 180. Apparently this takes the ticket out of the visible list…

Apparently this takes the ticket out of the visible list of tickets but it is still in the database.
I set this to "no" at least until I can learn how to access the "invisible" tickets more easily.

I have encountered an identical problem.

I also had Archive Requests: was set to yes

Have you found an opportunity to unarchive tickets from DB?

You may be able to modify the "archive" value to 0 in the database for the item:

update incident set archive = 0 where case_id = <case number>;

I would back up the DB before making any changes. I might suggest observing the state of existing tickets to confirm.
