Template Categories ↔ Templates

Service agents can quickly respond to normal or recurring service requests by leveraging pre-defined templates to answer the tickets. This feature allows you to group certain text modules by category and implements a category folder structure for standard templates.

For example, a typical recurring question is the request to send out a user guide for one of your specific products. Today, you would probably browse down the long list of your pre-defined templates and, once you finally have identified the right one with the user guide attached, you would send it out.

You can consolidate all text modules related to your products’ user guides in a separate category like User Guides. You can find it quickly, saving a lot of time trying to retrieve this information. This reduces your response time.

Use this screen to add one or more template categories to one or more templates. To use this function, at least one template category and one template need to have been added to the system. The management screen is available in the Template Categories ↔ Templates module of the Ticket Settings group.
