In this application you have an  Incident  Details form that has information on the issue, the details of the user who raised the issue, the support representative who has been assigned the incident, and the status of the incident. The Incident Status  field is a choice field with Opened, Assigned, In Progress, On-hold, and Resolved as options. You can write script for on update of this field. If the Status is changed, you can write a script to send an email notification to all the email address fields included in the form, providing information that the status has been updated.
