Shared by Bethany • January 03, 2024

Have a load of complex email queries that come through, that you just want to start off as a ticket? Now you can!

We've added a setting that allows you to automatically convert all inbound emails into a customer ticket type of your choice.

For further personalisation, or to enable all conversations to be auto-converted into tickets, we've also built a new 'convert to ticket' action in Workflows. Just choose your trigger and rules, and select the ticket type you want to convert to.

Shared by Pranava • November 29, 2023

SLAs now work for both conversations and customer tickets!

We've also made a bunch of SLA improvements that will help you and your team hit response and resolution time targets:

  • New resolution metrics: You can now track ‘time to resolve’ SLA metrics for tickets and ‘time to close’ SLA metrics for conversations and tickets.
  • Pausing SLAs: SLAs can now be paused on two states, ‘snoozed’ and ‘waiting on customer’, for more accurate timers and reporting.

  • Overriding SLAs: You can now override an existing SLA and replace it with a new one using workflows.

We've also improved the visibility of all these new metrics in the Inbox and SLAs reporting, including custom reports!
