Automation rules assist in creating customized workflows to perform recurrent manual tasks at each stage of the ticket life cycle, reducing manual effort and increasing agent productivity.
Automation rules allow you to set up a workflow that executes actions when certain conditions are satisfied. Ticket, requester, and contact group properties are available in the workflow. The supported actions are:
Updates ticket attributes such as status, priority, and custom fields, among others.
Sends a custom email to the ticket requester or the assigned agent or group.
Adds notes to tickets to remind an agent or to track events.
Adds or removes ticket tags, which are used to segmentize tickets.
The auto-assignment rule watches incoming tickets and assigns them to a particular agent or group within your company based on the first matched rule.
A ticket is assigned to the correct team based on the condition configured in the rule, avoiding unnecessary redirecting between teams.
Tickets are evenly distributed to available agents by round-robin logic.
Tickets will not remain unassigned for long thanks to automatic assignments..
Event-trigger automation performs certain actions when a specified event occurs.
Time triggers enable automated rules to perform repeated sets of actions based on selected criteria for every hour. These triggers perform cleanup and maintenance tasks by doing the following:
A work schedule defines business hours and holidays for your support team.
Set a reasonable deadline
The service level agreement (SLA) sets realistic response and resolution due dates based on business hours.
Create multiple business hours
Your support team is responsible for several customers in various time zones. Help Desk allows you to create multiple business hours and holiday lists to fit your team's needs.
Define a rule based on business hours
You can set up notifications for customers when they create or respond to tickets during holidays using automation rules, and you can set those rules to execute during business hours, non-business hours, or holidays.
A service level agreement, or SLA, helps to automatically set the response and resolution times that your support team should provide for a ticket. Set different work hours and holidays for a support team distributed across different time zones in accordance with the business hours used in the SLA.
SLAs enforce three metrics on the ticket to meet the service commitment given to customers:
- First response time
- Next response time
- Resolution time
To speed up the process, a reminder email will be sent to the agent before the response/resolution date.
The SLA will be breached if the agent fails to react to the ticket within the SLA’s response/resolution date, and an escalation email will be sent.

Round the Clock Support
Help desk software is a tool that serves a wide range of customer support activities. You can organize messages, give assistance, and exchange information with customers at a single point of contact (SPC). The help desk uses tickets for communication — that's why it's also known as ticketing system software.
The data collected from tickets is a valuable source of customer information. You can analyze support stories and be well-prepared for new customer cases and issues.
A help desk system deals with support requests or emails (called tickets) from users. When users have specialized issues or need help, they send a support request through different channels like email, phone, or an online form on a website. The help desk team or software then sorts and prioritizes the tickets based on the nature and seriousness of the issue. The ticket is then assigned to the appropriate support personnel or team who work on fixing the issue. The help desk keeps track of the ticket's progress by providing updates and communicating with the user. Once the issue is resolved, the help desk gives the user a solution and closes the ticket.
