Work smarter and faster

Example: Ecommerce business

It is common for online sellers to receive multiple tickets from a customer related to a single product or order. For example, imagine that a customer places an order for three items. First, they submit a request to check on the shipping timeline. Then, they receive the products but find that one of the items is defective and needs to be returned for a refund, while another needs to be exchanged for a different option.

The customer might submit a fresh ticket for each issue, but they should all be dealt with together for an efficient resolution. These requests can be linked through parent-child ticketing to ensure that any agents who work on the matter have all the context and approach the situation in an appropriate way.

Resolving parent-child tickets:

• Closing a parent ticket will also resolve all associated child tickets.

• A parent ticket will also be closed automatically if all the associated child tickets are resolved. This helps save time while ensuring tickets are closed appropriately.
