Zoho Support Integration

Zoho Support Integration

If you use Enterprise plans of Zoho Support and Zoho BugTracker add-on within Zoho Projects, you can log bugs in Support and track their progress from Projects.
 
Once a ticket is logged in Zoho Support, the support rep can file it as a bug. The bug will now show up in the corresponding BugTracker module of Zoho Projects.
 
Integration:
 
As a Portal owner, you can integrate Zoho Support with Zoho Projects. Navigate to Portal Settings in Projects and note the ZSC Key and email ID from Developers Space. These are used to authenticate Zoho Projects inside Zoho Support.
 
  1. Navigate to Setup>Others>Integrations in Zoho Support.

  2. Select Zoho Bug Tracker Integration and enter the email ID and ZSC Key in the Authentication Details.

  3. Click Next and you will be asked to select the Project Portal, Department and a default project (you can select a different project when filing a bug).
  4. Click Save and you are ready to add bugs from Zoho Support.

Real Time Communication
 
The integration goes beyond just submitting bugs from one application to another. Communication is the key and both parties need to keep each other posted on the progress or any development related to the bug.
 

  • Files available when filing a bug are updated in BugTracker automatically.

  • When the developer updates the status in BugTracker, the corresponding ticket is updated. This way the support rep can keep track of the progress.

  • Additional information can be added through comments either by the support rep or the developer and the feeds are updated in real time.

  • Once the developer marks the bug as resolved, the support rep is immediately notified and he can update the client and close the corresponding ticket.
You can visit the user guide for more information.

Try out the features and let us know what you think in the comments below.

      • Tip: How to print the Gantt View

        Though we move from the traditional project management system (using papers) to an online project management system, we still prefer to have a printed copy of the activities/tasks that are to be done in the project. This way, we can carry the to-do lists with us for the meetings and refer when we are offline. The print option, available at the right side of the page, allows the users to print the project information across all the modules. However, this option failed to print all the tasks & milestones

      • Four types of task dependencies

        "Nothing is particularly hard if you divide it into small jobs."                                                                                                                  - Henry Ford Projects, small or large, are driven by simple work units called tasks. Monitoring standalone tasks might look simple but as the workflow becomes elaborate, tasks may start relying on one another. In project management, this relationship between tasks is termed as "Task Dependencies". Dependency between tasks arise

      • Task Inline Editing Enhancement

        Hi All, Today, we have made an enhancement in task inline editing. In 4.0, task edit is moved in a single screen in a pop-up. We designed this in-order to make the task edit across the product to be the same. Let it be in Feeds, Tasks & My Tasks tab, Calendar & My Calendar tab, a click on the task title will open the popup and user can edit the values. Customers pointed us the inline editing was very useful to them & how much they miss that in 4.0. Based on the feedback, we have rolled out this enhancement.
