Cases are great for tracking just about anything, from customer support and help desk requests, to software bugs and project tasks. You can set up as many trackers as you like, because each space you create has one built right into its fabric.
Anyone can submit a case, issue, question, or ticket, then choose its status, milestone, priority, category, and add tags to provide further context. Assign it to someone and loop in additional people when you need their input. Everyone gets notified on updates and everyone can provide their expertise to find a solution or answer.
You can sort and filter on just about every field, making it easy to find what you're looking for, and each status is color coded, so you can quickly identify new, open, in-progress, or closed cases. Just about everything is configurable, so you can make it fit your existing workflows. And you can even check out the real-time reports to see a high-level view on how your team is doing.
Cases are a system for addressing issues. Cases are under a project and a project category, have a status and priority, may be assigned to a certain user, and may be grouped with other cases into a milestone. A case's status can be updated to reflect changes in its development.
Milestones are groupings of related cases. You can give a milestone a due date to keep on track. As cases in a milestone are closed, the milestone's percentage increases toward 100%.

Case statistics include the response time and resolution time. Response time is the amount of time between when the case was created and when the first comment was made by a user who can be assigned cases in the project. Resolution time is the amount of time between when the case was created and when the case was set to a closed status.

Case escalation escalates a case to another person based on space roles. The escalation order is based on the "Roles which can be assigned cases" setting of the case project. The case escalation feature helps teams automate ticket management.
When a user creates a case, they will be able to assign the case to users with the first role only.
When the assigned user opens the case, they will see a button to escalate the case. When they click Escalate this case, the case is assigned to a user with the next role who has the fewest assigned cases in the case project.
How to enable and configure case escalation
