We use kind of the same idea here. We have an offsite/contract level 1 desk that charges per incident and type. We have created a custom field called "TAG" with the valid resolution type. The search can then be done from the Simple Search by using "cf.TAG:value"

The choices were like: Phone New user virus etc.... We have set up RT with a main queue that the ticket then gets routed to either one of two sub queues as we have two different I.T. groups in our agency. Instead of setting up a queue for each category what would be the best way to be able to check categories for stats? I was thinking keywords/hashtags in the resolution. Anyone else have ideas or pointers?
