snake Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 I have a number of services which require manual provisioning or interaction.So I am using the "auto release" module to create a ticket.However all this does it create a ticket that says "Service ID # 234 was just auto provisioned", which is not helpful to anyone.How can I modify this to say something more informative and useful, or is there a better way to deal with manual provisioning? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadWebHosting Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 A better client communication experience is gained by using the New Order Ticket 3rd Party module, which allows highly configurable communication automations in response to orders placed. RE: the actual provisioning of your services, it is impossible to say without further details of your service. Hope it helps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snake Posted January 10, 2019 Author Share Posted January 10, 2019 The obvious solution would be that this "auto release module" has a field to type the text that will be put into the ticket, with dynamic variables. It does seem very odd that it is so basic and useless. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snake Posted January 16, 2019 Author Share Posted January 16, 2019 There are some basic features that are still missing since I started using WHMCS over 10 years ago. So I don;t hold out much hope 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
