How to with support tickets


Recommended Posts

We have recently switched from Kayako to the support system in WHMCS. However I have a few questions about how to's that I can't seem to make work.

 

The first issue is, can I have a ticket entered without it having to email all administrative users that there is a new ticket. My idea setup would be a new ticket is entered and no one receives an email notification. So that we just have to login and check for new tickets.

 

The second issue is I have it checked to not auto respond to a new ticket. However a) its still doing this. B) when it does it it moves the new ticket form the new queue to the answered queue. I do not want the system to automatically move anything. I want all new tickets to remain in the waiting answers/new queue until we process them.

 

Does any one have any tips or suggestions for how to make this work the way I am looking?

Why wouldyou not want to be notified of a new ticket? surely this is essential so you can answer your customers queries quickly.

Its no good a customers sending you a support ticket at 9am and you not checking until 9pm if you have any tickets, you customers wants a reply as quick as possible.

When you get used to it, you'll love it :) The support is MUCH better here!

 

For your first question, look at Set Up / Administrators / at the end of their setup screen is this that you can untick :

 

Tick this box to receive email notifications when new tickets are opened or responded to

 

For part of the second question, this is right that you said: Set Up / Support Departments. Select your Department to Edit, choosing:

 

Tick this box to not send the autoresponder message for new tickets

 

It shouldn't be bumping it to answered, it should be new. So you may want to send a support ticket in on in if its not working right.

We have a larger support team and not everyone needs to know right away that there is a new ticket. I only need them to know when they are flagged on a ticket. But if I remove the option to notify that user of new tickets then they also do not receive an email saying they have been flagged. Anyone know a way around this?
