What's new in 6.1?
 |
Automatic assignment of
a Technician, Problem Category or Type, and Service Level
to a
support case generated from a monitored
folder or mailbox Version 6.1 added the feature to associate a default value for fields such as Problem Category, Problem Type, Technician and Service Level to a monitored folder or mailbox, such that support case generated from this mailbox or folder, will have those associated parameters, automatically assigned. As a consequence of this dynamic assignment, Team Helpdesk will send out notification emails and SMS, to the assigned technician automatically.  This automation allows managers to get rid of manual assignment, and helps to improve the efficiency, and response time of your helpdesk team. You can also deactivate the automatic processing of a particular folder or mailbox, without needing to remove it from the list. This may prove useful in circumstances where you want to cease the automatic processing of incoming emails into the mailbox or the folder. If you have multiple users with Team Helpdesk Manager installed, responsibility of monitoring the mailboxes and folders would be borne by different users. In the last column 'Who is Monitoring?', you can now easily know who is currently monitoring a particular mailbox or folder. |
