Yes, the Suptask Slack app can automate both ticket creation and assignment.

• Ticket Creation: You can set up workflows to automatically create tickets from messages posted in specific Slack channels or by using a designated emoji reaction on any message.
• Ticket Assignment: Suptask can automatically assign these tickets to agents using rules such as round-robin, to the agent with the fewest open tickets, or to a specific person, ensuring an efficient and balanced workload. Read more.

You can use a help desk like Suptask directly within Slack to turn conversations into trackable tickets and resolve issues faster.

To use Slack as a help desk, simply ask for help in a designated channel (e.g., #support) or add an emoji to any message. This automatically creates a ticket, assigns it to the right agent, and lets everyone track the progress in a dedicated thread. All communication, from request to resolution, happens without ever leaving Slack.

Use a ticketing system like Suptask to manage support requests in Slack and organize them in one place.

Centralize Requests: Set up designated channels where the users can post their requests. It helps to keep track of all incoming questions easily.

Convert Messages to Tickets: Convert Slack messages into formal tickets with just a click. This ensures that all requests are logged and checked properly.

Collaborate in Threads: Each ticket should have its own thread for communication with users. This helps to keep the main channel clean and tidy.

Automate and Resolve: Set up workflows to assign tickets to the right agents and close them automatically when resolved.

You are able to control tickets without leaving Slack. The set-up requires no knowledge of coding. Here's the procedure.

• If any new messages are automatically treated as tickets in Slack channels, automate ticket creation. Users can transform previous Slack messages into tickets by using a specific emoji (e.g., "🎫 ").
• Automate ticket assignments using rules. Tickets must be assigned to the appropriate persons or groups. Suptask offers round-robin assigning, the fewest-open-tickets rule, and keyword-based routing.
• Automate updates/notifications by automatically notifying requesters about their tickets, new tasks for agents, and responding in threads so that there is full transparency on status changes and resolution processes, etc.

You can create tickets from Slack from any conversation with these two easy ways:

• Post in a Request Channel: Send a note to a channel called #it-support. Suptask will change it into a ticket.
• Use an Emoji Reaction: React with a ticket emoji (like 🎫). Suptask will change that message into a ticket.

Yes, Suptask shows near real-time analytics for your support operations on Slack. You can track key metrics like ticket volume, response times, and resolution rates to monitor team performance.

Suptask allows users to devise and execute their tailor-made Service Level Agreement (SLA) policies straight from Slack. You can define the reply and resolution time goal by the ticket's importance level (e.g., Low, High, Critical). Suptask then automatically notifies agents before a deadline is missed and can escalate breached tickets to a manager, ensuring your IT support team meets its targets.
