Tickets: Admin Manual

Manage helpdesk categories, assign personnel, and resolve issues.

1 Managing Categories and Fields

To assist ticket routing, Admins can customize categories and associated data fields.

  • From the sidebar, go to Tickets Admin -> Categories.
  • You can create high-level categories (e.g., "Hardware Issue") or nested subcategories.
  • Custom Fields: For each category, you can define custom fields (like "IP Address" or "App Version") that form questions the user must answer when selecting that specific category.

2 Processing Tickets

Admins are responsible for assigning and closing tickets as they arrive.

  • View the global Ticket pool from the All Tickets menu.
  • Assign: When opening an unsettled ticket, assign it to a specifically capable staff member to flag it as "In Progress".
  • Reply: Chat directly with the user who created it to gather more context.
  • Resolve: Once fixed, click "Resolve" to stop the timer and notify the user that their support request has concluded.
