2. 2 CTTS (Customer Trouble Ticketing System) CTTS (Customer Trouble Ticketing System) is a web interface application with the CNM Portal that allows access to trouble tickets within the trouble ticketing database to view information and updates. This enables you to easily look into the ticketing system and check on the status of your ticket without having to call anyone. You can also see exactly what is being done to resolve your issue and observe the details of testing and other diagnostics, rather than wondering what is being done to resolve your issue.
