Tips & Tricks #09 Automatiseren met Zoho Desk Deel 1



Beste Community leden,

Zoals jullie weten hebben we in Nederland een woningtekort. Een oplossing hiervoor is de hoogbouw. Echter, om de de hoogte in te gaan moet er ook voor de juiste faciliteiten in flats worden gezorgd. Problemen kunnen we allemaal wel bedenken: de afvoer raakt verstopt, de lift is defect of het warme water werkt niet. Om dit op te lossen hebben we verschillende mensen nodig: een elektricien, loodgieter, rioolservice.

We willen natuurlijk dat onze problemen zo snel mogelijk kunnen worden opgelost. Dit kan gemakkelijk gedaan worden door het proces uit te schrijven en dit te automatiseren. Aan de hand van een voorbeeld zullen we jullie uitleggen om het proces te automatiseren met Zoho Desk.

De Zalmhaventoren, het hoogste gebouw van Nederland, bevat maar liefst 256 appartementen. Stel dat de verlichting van verdieping 49 ineens niet meer werkt, je wilt dit zo snel mogelijk melden, zodat het gerepareerd kan worden. Dit kan door bijvoorbeeld op elke verdieping en elke kamer een specifieke QR code op te hangen. Door de QR code te scannen kun je je probleem melden en zal de desbetreffende partij een melding ontvangen, in dit geval de elektricien. De elektricien zal binnen 24 uur langskomen om het probleem op te lossen.

Hoe ziet dit er nou uit in Zoho Desk?
  1. Binnenkomst van probleem en toewijzing naar de juiste afdeling
  2. Melding naar de juiste persoon
  3. 24 uur de tijd om het probleem op te lossen anders een escalatie.

Deze use case kan worden opgelost door gebruik te maken van Zoho Forms en Zoho Desk, waarbij Zoho Forms kan worden gebruikt om het klachtenformulier te maken en Zoho Desk de verzamelplaats is voor alle klachten als tickets.



Het proces verloopt als volgt:
Een huurder scant de QR-code die beschikbaar is op elke verdieping van het gebouw om toegang te krijgen tot het klachtenformulier (dat is aangemaakt in Zoho Forms), om een klacht in te dienen. Zodra de huurder het formulier indient, wordt een ticket aangemaakt (in Zoho Desk) voor de klacht. Het aangemaakte ticket wordt toegewezen aan één van de medewerkers met behulp van de Round Robin toewijzingsregel. Zodra het ticket is toegewezen, ontvangen zowel de huurder als de medewerker aan wie het ticket is toegewezen een notificatie met relevante details. Vervolgens zal de medewerker het probleem aanpakken door de geschikte technici te sturen om het gemelde probleem op te lossen.


Er kan een eenvoudig formulier met alleen een naam en e-mailadres worden gemaakt of een complex formulier dat meerdere velden bevat om gedetailleerde informatie vast te leggen, zoals de problemen waarmee de huurder wordt geconfronteerd, de prioriteit van het probleem en enkele andere redenen kunnen ook gemakkelijk in Zoho Forms worden gemaakt.

Zoho Forms
Zoho Forms is een eenvoudig te gebruiken tool om formulieren te maken, zonder dat er downloads of installaties nodig zijn. Je kunt een formulier maken, delen en beginnen met het verzamelen van gegevens in slechts enkele minuten. Zoho Forms is toegankelijk vanaf laptops, tablets en mobiele telefoons.

Klachtenformulier maken in Zoho Forms



Met Zoho Forms kun je formulieren maken met een eenvoudige drag-and-drop optie.

- Begin met het geven van een formuliernaam (de gebruiker wordt doorgestuurd naar een formulierbouwpagina).
- Voeg de nodige velden toe om informatie van je huurders te verzamelen.
- Sla het formulier op.

Zoho Forms biedt kant-en-klare formulieren die geschikt zijn voor verschillende gelegenheden. Een nieuw formulier kan binnen enkele seconden worden gemaakt met behulp van deze sjablonen.

Klachtenformulier


Een URL en een QR-code worden gegenereerd voor het aangemaakte formulier onder het tabblad Delen, dat in een png-vorm kan worden gedownload. De gedownloade QR-code kan worden afgedrukt en op alle muren van elke verdieping van het appartement worden geplakt voor de huurders.


De volgende stap is het integreren van Zoho Forms met Zoho Desk. Dit lees je in de volgende Tips & Tricks van Zoho Desk.

How can i select them all at once to move them to another department in one go? I can select them in "unsassigned open tickets view" but i can't find a "move to another department" option.
