### Related Tables

**Dependencies:**

- `sla_policies` - SLA rules

**Related Tables:**
- `ticket_logs` - Change history

### Business Logic

**Ticket Number Generation:**
- Auto-generated unique ticket number
- Format: Custom (defined in controller)

**SLA Handling:**
- SLA deadline from policy
- SLA time calculated from creation
- Tracks if ticket is within SLA

**Stage Management:**
- Initial stage: "New"
- Can be updated through workflow
- Tracked in ticket_logs

**Priority Levels:**
1. Low
2. Medium
3. High
4. Urgent

**Image Upload:**
- Max 5 images per ticket
- Stored in `storage/tickets/`
- URLs stored as comma-separated in `ticket_url`

### Events

**Before Create:**
```php
Event::dispatch('helpdeskside.myticket.create.before');
```

**After Create:**
```php
Event::dispatch('helpdeskside.myticket.create.after', [$ticket]);
```

### Notifications

**On Ticket Creation:**
- Creates notification for assigned user
- Includes: ticket_id, ticket_number, customer_name, subject
- Stored in `ticket_notifications` table

### MariaDB 5.1.69 Compatibility

**✅ All Compatible:**
- No JSON column types (using TEXT with array casting)
- No utf8mb4 charset (using utf8)
- All foreign keys properly defined
- Proper data types for all columns

**JSON Handling:**
```php
// Database: TEXT column
$table->text('tags')->nullable();

// Model: Array casting
protected $casts = [
    'tags' => 'array',
];

// Usage: Transparent
$ticket->tags = ['urgent', 'support'];  // Laravel handles JSON encode
$tags = $ticket->tags;                   // Laravel handles JSON decode
```

### Testing Checklist

- [ ] Create ticket with all fields
- [ ] Create ticket with minimal fields
- [ ] Upload images (1-5)
- [ ] Select customer via search
- [ ] Select tags via search
- [ ] Create new tag inline
- [ ] Verify SLA auto-fill
- [ ] Check ticket number generation
- [ ] Verify notification creation
- [ ] Check foreign key constraints
- [ ] Test with utf8 characters
- [ ] Verify JSON data storage/retrieval

### Common Issues & Solutions

**Issue: "Column 'image_url' not found"**
- Solution: Updated to `ticket_url` in migration and model ✅

**Issue: "tags must be array"**
- Solution: Added array casting in model ✅

**Issue: "customer_id foreign key constraint fails"**
- Solution: Ensure customer exists before creating ticket

**Issue: "Invalid datetime format for sla_time"**
- Solution: Use `Y-m-d\TH:i` format from datetime-local input
