Set ticket thresholds for departments and agents

Businesses can set the maximum number of tickets that an agent can manage at a time by setting department and agent thresholds.

 

  • Department threshold: Earlier referred to as "Ticket threshold", it allows to set the maximum number of open tickets a department can have at a given point.

  • Agent threshold: A maximum limit is set for each agent, which ensures optimal ticket assignment even during peak conditions. It provides flexibility to manage workload according to agent experience and capacity. For example, senior support agents can handle more tickets, so the threshold for them can be more than others in the team.

Use macros to move tickets under a specific department and layout


Agents can move tickets to appropriate departments and specific layouts via macros to ensure it is handed to the right team. This is particularly useful for transferring tickets based on the issue type or complexity and organizing them in a way that aligns with departmental workflows.


For instance, when a sales representative identifies that an inquiry requires attention from the property management department, they can use a macro to move the ticket to the appropriate department and assign it to a specific layout, such as "Maintenance." Admins can maintain control over the ticket routing process and ensure accuracy when agents transfer tickets to the correct department and layout.
