As the core system statuses, this means that tickets are set for them automatically by the system when various events occur. You can add additional statuses that you want and these will then appear in the admin ticket interface as options for you to assign tickets to when viewing or replying to them. The options you select allow you to determine how they are handled by the system.

- Include in Awaiting Reply - Ticking this box includes the status in the tickets considered as awaiting a reply by staff.

Different staffs can be assigned to different departments so you can have the different areas handled by different customer if required. Example Sales departments, Support departments, Billing departments etc...
