Configuring Automation Rules for Happiness Ratings - Online Help | Zoho Desk

Configuring Automation Rules for Happiness Ratings

Typically, happiness rating is a placeholder [${Cases.Customer Happiness Rating}] that contains the rating question and the answer links. The placeholder, when inserted into an email template, can be sent to your customers using the automation rules in Zoho Desk. For example, you can spice up ratings; good or bad with Workflows and Time-based triggers.

Let us see how each of these automation rules can be leveraged to get the best out of your customer support team.

Workflows
It's not uncommon for agents to receive a poor rating, even though they have given their best. But you can always turn around a negative feedback, by quickly following up a support interaction and making sure the problem is resolved. While you can learn how to create a workflow rule here, let's look at creating one for the above situation.
  1. Go to Setup  ) > Automation > Workflows. 
  2. In the Workflows Rules page, click Create Rule in the upper-right area and follow the below steps.
Part 1: Select the [Tickets] module and enter the Rule Name.
Part 2: You must choose to execute the rule based on Happiness Rating (for) Bad ratings.
Part 3: In the Rule Criteria section, specify <Status> is <Closed>.



Part 4: Under Actions, create a New Alert and do the following:
    • Provide the Alert Name, e.g. Follow-up on Negative Ratings.
    • Select an Email Template that will be sent to the customer. You can personalize this email according to your needs.
    • Select the Notify Contact check box.
    • Save the Workflow Rule.
When your customers leave a negative rating, the Workflow Rule will send your customers the personalized email enquiring how you could be of further help.

Time-based or Supervise Rules
Typically, customers need some time to digest their support experience before being asked for a feedback. For the same reason, you can set up a time-based rule that triggers an email containing the rating placeholder, after about 24 hours of closing a ticket. While you can learn how to create time-based rules here, let's look at creating one for the above situation.
  1. Click the Setup icon (  ) in the top bar
  2. In the Setup Landing page, click Supervise under Automation.
  3. In the Supervise Rules page, click Create Rule in the upper-right area and follow these steps:
Part 1: Enter the Rule Name and specify Business Hours as Calendar Hours.
Part 2: In the Rule Criteria section, specify:     <Hours since closed> is <24> (AND)
                                                                             <Happiness Rating> <Link not provided> (AND)
                                                                             <Status> is <Closed>



Part 3: Under Actions, create a New Alert and do the following:
    • Provide the Alert Name. For example, Send Rating Link.
    • Select an Email Template that contains the rating placeholder. You can personalize this email according to your needs.
    • Select the Notify Contact check box.
    • Save the Supervise Rule.
The Supervise Rule will send your customers the personalized email asking for a rating, at the end of 24 hours of closing their tickets.
