Understand Desk

Desk works from left to right: choose a view, open a ticket, read context, reply, note, and update status. Desk is where customer work happens. A good Desk habit is simple:
  1. Pick the right view or queue.
  2. Open the oldest or highest-priority ticket.
  3. Read the conversation and customer context.
  4. Reply on the correct channel.
  5. Add an internal note if a teammate needs context.
  6. Change the ticket status so the queue stays clean.

What a Ticket Can Contain

A ticket can include email messages, live chat messages, SMS messages, voice call records, recordings, transcripts, AI summaries, notes, customer details, and status history.

Practical Desk Rules

  • Do not close a ticket until the customer need is handled.
  • Use notes for teammate context, never for customer replies.
  • Keep one customer issue in one thread when possible.
  • If text gets too slow, use browser calling.
