Whether you’re an agent striving for productivity or an end user seeking timely assistance, Desk365 offers intuitive solutions tailored to your needs. In this guide, we’ll delve into how agents can fine-tune their individual notification preferences to streamline their workflow, and how end users can personalize their individual notification settings for smooth communication.
Configuring Notification Preferences for Agents
Empower your agents to work more efficiently and enhance their productivity by enabling notifications through the agent’s email or the agent’s Microsoft Teams Desk365 app. Here’s how to set up notification preferences:
- Access your agent portal.
- Click on your profile picture, then go to My Profile.
- Turn on your preferred notification method.
Agents can receive notifications via email or Microsoft Teams or both. To receive Microsoft Teams notifications, agents need to install the Desk365 Agent Bot on their Microsoft Teams account.
The notification feature located below Settings – Productivity – Notifications provides agents the flexibility to configure notification options based on their individual preferences. It helps agents customize their notification settings, and stay informed about ticket updates and provide timely support to customers, thereby enhancing overall service quality. The notification feature automatically sends notifications to Agents based on ticket lifecycle events. It’s important to note that SLA (Service Level Agreement) notifications are enabled by default, ensuring that agents are alerted to any breaches in service standards according to predefined SLAs.
Configuring Notification Preferences for End Users
