How to deal with non-related calls received by the SD?

[javierarcal]

Hi all,

I've been through ITIL Service Operation book, trying to find out what should be done with non-related calls to our Service Desk and haven't found anything.
Should they be registered by the Service Desk?
Even though they are non-related they are time consuming, any ideas?
Any help will be welcome

Kind Regards

What do you mean by Non relating

Are they obscene calls
Orders for food ?


What you do with them depends on the underlying ticket system

Does it support - other - or info - for calls etc

If you do not record them, you cannot investigate why they are occuring or from whom they come. So if you wanted to reduce the number (since they are essentially "nuisance" calls, you would lack the data - even the frequency, which would be the measure of success in reducing them.
