# Parking/Unparking a Global Trouble Ticket

A trouble ticket cannot be closed until the customer has been notified that their problem has been resolved. In the event you are not able to contact the customer, you can place a trouble ticket on hold until the customer is notified of the resolution of their problem. This is referred to as “parking” a trouble ticket.

The following conditions must exist to park a trouble ticket:

- The Global trouble ticket must be open.
- The Global trouble ticket must not be a Child Global trouble ticket (must not be assigned/linked to another trouble ticket).

To park a Global trouble ticket:

1. From the Global Trouble Tickets window, right-click on the Global trouble ticket and select **Park Trouble Ticket**.

This displays the Select Hold Reason window.
