Training Modules & Workflows

Follow these practical guides to master every capability of Support Tickets.

Lesson 1 of 4

1. Creating and Categorizing Support Tickets

Initiate new support requests and direct them to the appropriate support queue.

1

Navigate to Support

Open Support (/support) from the main menu and click 'Create Ticket' (/support/create).

2

Assign Category & Priority

Select the appropriate Category from your configured Support Categories (/support-categories) and set Priority (Low, Medium, High, Urgent).

2. Using Voice Dictation & Audio Playback

Speed up response times using speech-to-text input and listen to replies with text-to-speech.

1

Activate Microphone Dictation

Inside any ticket conversation (/support/:id), click the microphone icon. Select your speech language (e.g., English India, English US) and speak naturally.

2

Observe Audio Visualizer

The real-time audio visualizer confirms microphone input levels as speech is transcribed into the message box.

3

Listen to Message Playback

Click the audio speaker icon next to any incoming message to have the CRM read the message aloud via browser text-to-speech synthesis.

Voice dictation allows support agents to draft detailed diagnostic replies up to 3x faster than manual typing.

3. Internal Private Notes vs. Public Messages

Collaborate privately with teammates before sending official client responses.

1

Toggle Internal Note

Flip the 'Internal Note' switch above the message composer to change into private collaboration mode.

2

Send Private Note

Post internal findings, database references, or engineering escalations. Internal notes are highlighted with a distinct shield badge.

3

Send Public Customer Reply

Toggle off Internal Note to compose and deliver the client-facing resolution message.

Internal notes prevent internal engineering discussions or sensitive account details from reaching external clients.

Update Ticket Status

Use the status selector to advance tickets from 'Open' to 'In Progress', 'Awaiting Client', and finally 'Resolved'.
