Automatically create support tickets on a recurring basis

Automatically create support tickets on a recurring basis

As mentioned in this post, the idea of a recurring ticket is pretty valid. From time to time, we have to create repetitive tickets (like windows update tasks, restore simulation of backups, check firewall rules for unused entries, and so on).

I guess this is a very important tool for Service/Help Desk purposes, so we doesn't have to create a internal schedule (on Microsoft Outlook or Google calendar) to remember to open a new ticket every week/month/etc.

    • Tip #1: Learn to pick the right channels

      Mail, live chat, telephony, social media, web forms—there are so many support channels out there. Trying to pick the right channels to offer your customers can get pretty confusing. Emails are most useful when the customer wants to put things on record. However, escalated or complicated issues should not be resolved over email because it's slow and impersonal.  When you need immediate responses, live chat is more suitable. It's also quick and convenient, so it's the go-to channel for small issues.
