Managing Ticket Flows and Optimizations

In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to manage ticket flows from both the Staff User and Admin perspectives. This includes how staff users handle tickets and how admins configure ticket assignment settings.

Assigning Departments to Staff Users

You can assign specific departments to your staff users. If a staff user is not assigned to a department, they won’t be able to see tickets from that department.

To assign a department to a staff user, follow these steps:

1. Navigate to Settings → Staff Users.

   

2. Select a staff user and click Manage user

   

3. In the new screen, go to the Overview tab, scroll down to User Permissions, and assign them to specific groups or departments.

• Permission Group: These are groups you create under Settings → Staff Group, and they control what each staff user can access. [Refer to our guide here for further details]
• Ticket Department: These are the departments you’ve set up under Settings → Support Departments. Check the guide here to create a support department. This option allows you to manage and assign departments to staff users, ensuring they only handle tickets from their designated departments.

How to Remove "List All Tickets" for Staff

This feature prevents staff from picking and choosing tickets themselves.

1. Go to Settings.
2. Click on Staff Groups > then click Edit

3. Uncheck the List Tickets and Unassigned Tickets options.

Once these options are unchecked, in the Support Menu, staff will no longer see the All Tickets and Unassigned Tickets sections. They will only see tickets that are assigned to them.

Additionally, staff will have the Take Ticket option (explained in the next section)

How Staff Take Unassigned Tickets

In the Support menu, there is a feature called Take Ticket. This allows staff to pick up unassigned tickets from their assigned department.

How It Works:

1. Once a staff is assigned to a department, they can use the Take Ticket button.
2. Clicking Take Ticket will automatically assign them the first available unassigned ticket in their department.

Example Scenario

1. Before Clicking "Take Ticket"

• The staff is assigned to the Support Department.

• There are unassigned tickets available.

  

2. After Clicking "Take Ticket"

• The system assigns the staff the first unassigned ticket in their department.

• They can now proceed to handle the ticket.

  

As an Admin: How to View Staff Ticket

Admins can see each staff’s assigned, watched, and closed tickets under: Settings → Staff Users. This allows admins to track workload, monitor ticket progress, and ensure fair ticket distribution

How to Check a Staff User’s Tickets:

1. Go to Settings → Staff Users.
2. Select a staff user and click Manage User.
3. In the Ticket tab, you’ll find:
   • Assigned tickets – Tickets assigned to them.
   • Watched tickets – Tickets they are involved in.
   • Closed tickets – Tickets they’ve closed

In addition to ticket management, we also offer features for ticket scheduling and locking tickets. For more details, check the guides below:
