After entering it, you will get into the standard channel settings:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild6163-3132-4630-b839-626461303266/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">Now you can send and receive messages directly from your personal account.</div><h3  class="t-redactor__h3">Telegram group chats and threads in Upservice</h3><div class="t-redactor__text">Upservice supports working with Telegram group chats and individual threads within these chats. Group chats and their threads are displayed in the interface in a way that makes it convenient to navigate through dialogues, track unread messages, and work with tickets for each thread.</div><h4  class="t-redactor__h4">Telegram group chat in Upservice</h4><div class="t-redactor__text">A Telegram group chat in Upservice is a single dialogue within which individual threads (topics/threads) exist. In the interface, such a chat is displayed as a separate group with its own group chat icon.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">Key features of a group chat in Upservice: <br /><ul><li data-list="bullet">group chats are displayed with a separate icon distinguishing them from regular dialogues; </li><li data-list="bullet">the General chat in Telegram is displayed with the same name as the group chat itself; </li><li data-list="bullet">each participant in the correspondence is identified by their full name or nickname (if the full name is unavailable).</li></ul></div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3766-6464-4233-a237-363032323633/ChatGPT_Image_22__20.png"><h4  class="t-redactor__h4">Displaying threads in a Telegram group chat</h4><div class="t-redactor__text">Within one Telegram group chat, there can be several threads. In Upservice, all threads of one group chat are visually combined into a single group.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">The logic for displaying threads is as follows:<br /><ul><li data-list="bullet">if there is only one chat (one thread) in the group chat, the threads are not displayed in the list — you see the group chat as a regular dialogue; </li><li data-list="bullet"> threads start to be displayed only when there is strictly more than one ("&gt;1"); </li><li data-list="bullet">all threads of a single group chat are displayed within a single group under the main row of the group chat.</li></ul></div><h4  class="t-redactor__h4">Expanding and collapsing the thread list</h4><div class="t-redactor__text">A group chat in the list works like a dropdown list. This allows you to quickly manage the display of threads without overloading the interface.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">Group chat behavior when clicked:</div><div class="t-redactor__text"><ul><li data-list="bullet">· upon the first click on the main row of the group chat, the thread list expands, and the cursor is placed in the first chat of the group;</li><li data-list="bullet">upon clicking the main row of the group chat again, the thread list collapses;</li><li data-list="bullet">by default, the group chat is displayed in an expanded state.</li></ul></div><div class="t-redactor__text">The system remembers the "Collapsed/Expanded" state for each user based on the filter principle: if you collapsed a specific group chat, the next time you enter the chats section, it will remain collapsed specifically for you.</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3935-3662-4662-a362-653563323964/image.png"><h4  class="t-redactor__h4">Information in the main row of the group chat</h4><div class="t-redactor__text">The main row of the group chat contains a brief summary of activity in this group chat so you can quickly assess the situation without expanding the threads.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">The main row of the group chat displays:<br /><ul><li data-list="bullet">the participant who sent the last message in this group chat;</li><li data-list="bullet">the last unread message (a text snippet);</li><li data-list="bullet">a counter of the total number of unread chats (threads) within this group chat.</li></ul></div><div class="t-redactor__text">This helps you understand which threads still have unread messages and quickly navigate to the desired thread.</div><h4  class="t-redactor__h4">Assignees and tickets by threads</h4><div class="t-redactor__text">Each thread in a Telegram group chat in Upservice is processed as a separate ticket. One thread means one ticket and one separate contact.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">At the same time, assignees for each thread are not displayed in the list of threads and group chats to avoid overloading the interface. The assignee for a thread is visible only inside the card of the thread itself.</div><h4  class="t-redactor__h4">Communication channels in a Telegram group chat</h4><div class="t-redactor__text">Within a Telegram group chat in Upservice, only relevant communication channels are available.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">In a group chat, you can only write via:<br /><ul><li data-list="bullet">the "Telegram bot" channel;</li><li data-list="bullet">the "My comment" channel (internal comment).</li></ul></div><div class="t-redactor__text">Other communication channels (email, phone, etc.) are not displayed in the group chat and are unavailable for selection when sending messages.</div>]]></turbo:content>

      <turbo:content><![CDATA[<header><h1>Connecting a WhatsApp Business channel to the Upservice system</h1></header><figure><img alt="" src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3761-3336-4061-a662-383234663939/Gemini_Generated_Ima.png"/></figure><h2  class="t-redactor__h2">WhatsApp Business</h2><div class="t-redactor__text">Connecting a channel, working with messages in an open session, and sending templates.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">This article summarizes the basic rules for working with WhatsApp Business in Upservice: how to connect a channel, when you can send regular messages, when you need to use templates, and what restrictions are important to consider.</div><h2  class="t-redactor__h2">1. What connecting WhatsApp Business gives you</h2><div class="t-redactor__text">After connecting the channel, you will be able to correspond with clients from Upservice without switching to separate WhatsApp windows. The channel is suitable for both answering incoming messages and for the first initiation of a dialogue through pre-approved templates.</div><div class="t-redactor__text"><ul><li data-list="bullet">answer the client in the contact card via the selected WhatsApp Business channel;</li><li data-list="bullet">send regular text messages when the session is open;</li><li data-list="bullet">send message templates when the session is closed or when you need to start a dialogue first;</li><li data-list="bullet">use a single Upservice interface for operators, channel administrator, and working hours settings.</li></ul></div><h2  class="t-redactor__h2">2. What is important to know in advance</h2><div class="t-redactor__text">Before connecting, make sure you have access to a Meta business account and a WhatsApp Business number that will be used for correspondence. If you don't have a ready account yet, you can create one during the linking process.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">It is also important to understand two basic rules of the WhatsApp Business platform:</div><div class="t-redactor__text"><ul><li data-list="bullet">regular messages without a template can be sent only during an open 24-hour window after the client's last message; In this case, the window is opened from the user's side, exactly at the moment when your client wrote to you.</li><li data-list="bullet">outside this window, only pre-approved message templates are used to start or resume a dialogue.</li></ul></div><div class="t-redactor__text">Detailed Meta <a href="https://developers.facebook.com/documentation/business-messaging/whatsapp/messages/send-messages" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">rules </a>are described in the official messaging documentation and the templates documentation.</div><h2  class="t-redactor__h2">3. How to connect WhatsApp Business</h2><div class="t-redactor__text">Connecting is done in two steps: first you create a channel in Upservice, then you go through the linking via the Meta window and return to the channel settings.</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild6630-3933-4966-b665-623337386562/image.png"><h3  class="t-redactor__h3">3.1. Open channel connection</h3><div class="t-redactor__text">In the list of available channels, select WABA. The first step of connection will open.</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3035-3362-4635-b461-393439323862/image.png"><h3  class="t-redactor__h3">3.2. Fill in the channel name and complete the linking</h3><div class="t-redactor__text">In the "Channel name" field, specify a clear internal name. It will help distinguish the channel from other connections if you have several of them. After that, click "Continue".</div><div class="t-redactor__text">After clicking "Continue", a Meta pop-up will open. In this window, you need to log in to the desired business account, select an existing WhatsApp Business account or create a new one, and confirm the accesses necessary for connection.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">If you already have an active WhatsApp Business number, select it during the linking process. If there is no number yet, create a new one and complete the steps of the connection wizard.</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3938-3938-4634-a135-396436636566/4ed8b635-85fe-4348-9.jpg"><div class="t-redactor__text">After selecting the phone number - click Next and here you need to select the "Use a new or existing WhatsApp number" field.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">In the "Phone number" field - add the phone number from which you want to send messages. If the phone number is already added - just select it in the list.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">If you chose to create a new number, you will need to verify it in a way convenient for you:</div><div class="t-redactor__text">SMS or Phone call</div><div class="t-redactor__text">After verifying or selecting an already existing number - click "Next"</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3263-3530-4164-a166-373236376663/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">And then we just have to click "Confirm"</div><h3  class="t-redactor__h3">3.3. Check channel settings and save</h3><div class="t-redactor__text">After successful linking, the second step of channel settings in Upservice will open. Here you can check the channel name, WhatsApp phone number, channel administrator, operators, working hours, automatic response during non-working hours, welcome message, as well as additional switches available for the channel.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">When all fields and settings are checked, click "Save". After that, Upservice will show a message that the channel has been successfully created.</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3438-6261-4534-a235-366161326134/Gemini_Generated_Ima.png"><h2  class="t-redactor__h2">4. What is a WhatsApp session and how long does it last</h2><div class="t-redactor__text">A WhatsApp session is a period when a business can send a client regular messages without a template. According to the official rules of the WhatsApp Business Platform, such a window opens after a client writes to you and lasts 24 hours from the moment of their last message.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">While this 24-hour window is open, you can continue the correspondence with regular text messages. When the window closes, sending regular text becomes unavailable, and you must use an approved template to resume the dialogue.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">You can read more about this window in the official <a href="https://developers.facebook.com/documentation/business-messaging/whatsapp/get-started" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Meta guide</a>.</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild6466-3535-4139-b032-646364383666/Gemini_Generated_Ima.png"><h2  class="t-redactor__h2">5. How to send regular messages</h2><div class="t-redactor__text">Regular text messages are used for standard correspondence with a client when the session is already open. This is the main mode of operation after an incoming message from a client.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">Open a contact card or dialogue where the WhatsApp Business channel is selected. Make sure the session is open and the client has written to you within the last 24 hours. Enter the text of the message and send it the usual way through the correspondence window.</div><div class="t-redactor__text"><ul><li data-list="bullet">The message will light up red if you did not have time to write to them in the open 24-hour window.</li></ul></div><div class="t-redactor__text">If all conditions are met, the message will be sent to the client in WhatsApp.</div><h2  class="t-redactor__h2">6. What happens if the session is closed</h2><div class="t-redactor__text">If the 24-hour window is already closed, a regular text message cannot be sent. In this case, WhatsApp Business requires using a template.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">Such a message is not sent from Upservice. It is displayed in red, and the user is shown a notification: "Currently, you can only send reply templates".</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3266-3238-4530-b932-396133353065/Gemini_Generated_Ima.png"><h2  class="t-redactor__h2">7. How to create WhatsApp Business templates</h2><div class="t-redactor__text">Templates are used in two main cases: when you need to be the first to start a dialogue with a client and when the 24-hour session is already closed. Before sending, the template must be approved in the WhatsApp Business infrastructure.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">In order to create a template - you need to go directly to the business.facebook interface for creating templates. It is located <a href="https://business.facebook.com/latest/whatsapp_manager/message_templates" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">here</a>. This is a template creation window in which you need to create your templates and send them for approval.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">Important condition!</div><div class="t-redactor__text">You can only create text messages in the Marketing category.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">When creating a Template, you select Marketing</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild6336-3364-4931-a331-663932306165/Gemini_Generated_Ima.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">Next, you need to specify the "Template name", and also select the language on the right. In the "Content" block, you need to specify only the main text of your message that you want to send to your clients.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">After that, you click the "Submit for review" button</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3565-6332-4432-b666-666562663638/Gemini_Generated_Ima.png"><h3  class="t-redactor__h3">7.1. Sending a message within Upservice</h3><div class="t-redactor__text">After the templates are approved, we go to our Upservice system.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">We select the contact to whom we want to write first. In the correspondence window, you need to click on the "WhatsApp Business reply templates" icon. A channel and template selection window will open.</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild6237-6365-4733-b338-303366346431/Gemini_Generated_Ima.png"><h3  class="t-redactor__h3">7.2. Select a channel and template</h3><div class="t-redactor__text">In the "Channel" field, select the desired connected WhatsApp Business channel. Below, a list of templates available for this channel will be displayed. Select the desired template by name.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">After selecting the template, the "Sending a WhatsApp Business template" window will open. It displays the channel, the template, and its preview without the possibility of editing.</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild6331-3231-4763-a639-623135656638/Gemini_Generated_Ima.png"><h3  class="t-redactor__h3">7.3. Send the template</h3><div class="t-redactor__text">Check the selected channel and template text, then click "Send". If the template fits the platform rules and is available for the selected channel, Upservice will send it to the client.</div><h2  class="t-redactor__h2">8. If the message was not sent</h2><div class="t-redactor__text">If an error occurs during sending, the message does not reach the client. In Upservice, it is displayed in red with the text: "Message not sent. If the error repeats, contact support".</div><div class="t-redactor__text">Most often, an error is associated with one of the following reasons:</div><div class="t-redactor__text"><ul><li data-list="bullet">the session is closed, and you are trying to send a regular message instead of a template;</li><li data-list="bullet">the channel was not fully connected or lost part of the accesses;</li><li data-list="bullet">the template is no longer available or its status has changed in the WhatsApp Business infrastructure.</li></ul></div><h2  class="t-redactor__h2">9. Restrictions and recommendations</h2><div class="t-redactor__text">For the channel to work stably, it is important to adhere to the basic rules of WhatsApp Business and not use it as a mass spam channel. The platform monitors the quality of templates, user responses, and adherence to the messaging policy.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">What is important to observe in practice:</div><div class="t-redactor__text"><ul><li data-list="bullet">send only expected and relevant messages;</li><li data-list="bullet">do not send too many similar messages without obvious benefit to the client;</li><li data-list="bullet">use a clear company name and a correctly designed business profile;</li><li data-list="bullet">monitor the quality of templates and do not use misleading texts.</li></ul></div><div class="t-redactor__text">It is useful to periodically check against the <a href="https://whatsappbusiness.com/policy/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">WhatsApp Business Messaging Policy</a> and the onboarding and <a href="https://whatsappbusiness.com/resources/resource-library/api-onboarding/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">opt-in guidelines</a>.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">If users often complain about your messages, do not read them, or block the number, the quality of the channel may decrease. This affects delivery, template availability, and the overall stability of the channel.</div><h2  class="t-redactor__h2">In short: the main rule of operation</h2><div class="t-redactor__text">If a client has already written to you and the 24-hour window is open - reply with regular text. If the window is closed or you want to write first - use an approved WhatsApp Business template.</div>]]></turbo:content>

Each customer request turns into a separate "ticket" (or application), which is tracked from its creation to its complete resolution. Such a system allows you to structure communication, improve service quality, and ensure no request is ever lost.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">Tickets can be created from any channel you set up in Upservice, specifically: Website Form, Website Chat, Email, Telegram, WhatsApp, and Telephony.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">To configure your Ticket system within Upservice, navigate to the <strong>Tickets</strong> tab located in the left-hand menu.</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3236-6538-4635-b861-363936356263/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">By default, the tickets page in Upservice is displayed in the <strong>"Kanban"</strong> view.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">Users can switch to the <strong>"List"</strong> view using the "List" icon — similar to how view switching works in tasks.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">This allows you to choose a comfortable working format: visual (Kanban) or tabular (List).</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3739-3538-4438-b332-353336363264/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text"><strong>List </strong>view:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3830-3664-4238-b738-363935316538/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">There are two ways to create a ticket:</div><div class="t-redactor__text"><ul><li data-list="bullet"><strong>First method </strong>— create a ticket manually by specifying a contact;</li><li data-list="bullet"><strong>Second method </strong>— create a ticket through a communication channel.</li></ul></div><div class="t-redactor__text"><strong>First method: </strong>Creating a ticket manually</div><div class="t-redactor__text">To create a ticket manually, we need to go to the "Tickets" section and click the "Add ticket" button:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild6436-3562-4161-b363-373535636533/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">After creating the ticket, a form will open with fields that need to be filled out for proper registration and further work with the request. Below is a description of each field:</div><div class="t-redactor__text"><ul><li data-list="bullet"><strong>Name</strong> — it is recommended to indicate the client's Last and First Name for quick identification. You can supplement the title with a brief summary of the problem to simplify searching through the ticket list.</li><li data-list="bullet"><strong>Description</strong> — a field for recording key details of the request. Here you should describe the problem, attach necessary context, or specify the exact goal of creating the ticket so any employee can quickly understand the situation.</li><li data-list="bullet"><strong>Due Date</strong> — the deadline set for resolving the issue. Specifying an exact date and time helps monitor SLA compliance and guarantees the task will be closed on time.</li><li data-list="bullet"><strong>Responsible</strong> — the employee assigned to handle this ticket. This specialist will deal with resolving all related issues and act as a single point of contact for the client.</li><li data-list="bullet"><strong>Contact</strong> — a field where information about the client who initiated the request is recorded. The data in this field links the ticket to a specific profile in the system.</li><li data-list="bullet"><strong>Channel</strong> — the communication method through which the request was received.

In total, there are 5 statuses in our ticket system:</div><div class="t-redactor__text">1. <strong>AI</strong> - requests that are being processed by the tech support AI assistant on the first line of support fall into this status. That is, the AI assistant helps answer the client's questions without involving a channel operator; if it cannot handle it, it will then transfer it to an operator. You can read more about how to set up the tech support AI assistant in Upservice here.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">2. <strong>Open </strong>- all new requests written by users across all channel types fall into this status.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">3. <strong>In Progress</strong> - tickets that the operator has taken to work and is communicating with the user (see below for how this works).</div><div class="t-redactor__text">4. <strong>On hold </strong>- user requests where the operator has already given an answer (for example, requested additional info) and is waiting for the user's response.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">5. <strong>Done </strong>- this is the final status of a ticket, when the request was successfully processed by the operator, the result of which is either the creation of a task/application based on the user's request, or the request was resolved through correspondence with the operator.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">To take a ticket into work, you first need to go into the ticket itself by clicking on it:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3733-6136-4263-a535-363765383631/Screenshot_26.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">After we have gone into our ticket, we can see the following information located inside the ticket itself, namely:</div><div class="t-redactor__text">1. Ticket information:</div><div class="t-redactor__text">- Created</div><div class="t-redactor__text">- Due Date: (SLA, if specified in the settings) configured in the channel settings itself.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">- Contact based on which our ticket was created</div><div class="t-redactor__text">- Channel through which the user request came</div><div class="t-redactor__text">- Ticket description - this is the actual message of the user who wrote to us.</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3435-3734-4264-b731-386138306461/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">Also, we see a live "Time to complete" timeline for the ticket's completion.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">2 . Standard entity settings, such as:</div><div class="t-redactor__text"><ul><li data-list="bullet">Access rights - employees who have access to the ticket.

Ticket dialogue - the main window where the operator can see and conduct all correspondence with the contact:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3830-6335-4134-a563-366537633632/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">Also, if you go to the "Contact Information" tab further to the right - here we can see additional information about the contact, if any:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild6537-3237-4236-b138-313037363332/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">After we have familiarized ourselves with the main tools within the ticket itself, let's take our ticket into work; to do this, from the operator's side, we click the "<strong>Start work</strong>" button, after which our ticket will automatically assign us as the responsible person and change its status to 'In progress'; in the ticket itself, it looks like this:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3537-3531-4637-a134-333366663134/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">And on the kanban board, we see that our ticket has moved to the "In Progress" status:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3334-3035-4339-b966-656463346635/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">Our next step could be various actions, but first, let's reply to our user that we have taken their request into work:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3531-6237-4762-b631-643434643634/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">After our reply, we see in the ticket that it has changed to another status, namely "On hold", this is how it looks on the kanban board:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3131-3463-4235-b032-646637303332/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">Now let's continue using the website chat channel as an example. Our ticket is in the 'in progress' status because the client replied "Thank you" to us, thereby transferring the ticket to the "In Progress" status. Next, we need to create a task for their request. This can be done in several ways. The first, specifically adapted for tickets, is located in the "Add" button:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3537-3835-4262-b862-613433383930/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">Here we can select the operation we need, namely to create:</div><div class="t-redactor__text"><ul><li data-list="bullet">Task</li></ul></div><div class="t-redactor__text"><ul><li data-list="bullet">Deal</li></ul></div><div class="t-redactor__text">Let's select a task, for example. We select the required task type:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3866-3331-4563-b635-623033623035/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">For example, a Simple type task, and we fill in all the necessary fields:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3035-6632-4436-b863-636337343265/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">The task description (the message the user contacted us with) is automatically thrown into the task, and a link is added with the contact and the ticket itself.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">After we have filled in all the fields we need, we click the "Create" button, and we are automatically transferred to the task we created:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3965-6336-4938-b237-373163336631/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">Returning to our ticket by clicking the back arrow, we see that a tracking link has been sent to our contact, through which they can monitor the progress of the task:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3134-3364-4832-a536-636262373634/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">Now you can either manually move the task to the 'resolved' status, or wait until the client's SLA is processed, if you have one set up.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">Client SLA is the time you give a ticket to be in the 'awaiting reply' status until it closes. That is, if you have a client SLA of 1 hour and the client has not answered you anything during this time, the ticket will automatically transition to the 'resolved' status. To configure the client SLA, you need to go to the "Settings" module and then to the "Channels" section:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3639-3763-4362-a430-626331386366/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">And we will move our ticket to the 'resolved' status. Congratulations! You have processed your first ticket.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">Tickets in the Done status can be Returned to work or merged with the current ticket, if, for example, it is a question regarding a previous ticket, but the client SLA expired and the ticket was closed.</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3432-3233-4865-b735-373534393237/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">You can merge tickets only if you have another active ticket from the same contact:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3061-3262-4433-b530-343837396463/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">Merged tickets in the system can be seen at the bottom of the ticket itself:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3031-6233-4337-b662-383063396433/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">Now let's look at a few other use cases for the ticket system in your work:</div><div class="t-redactor__text">For example, if you don't need to create any task, but you simply managed to resolve the user's problem in a dialogue with them, then you can just move the ticket to the 'resolved' status by clicking the "Close" button:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3464-3165-4338-a462-653430303831/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">This way, you will also move your ticket to the "Done" status.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">If you have contacts for whom you do not need tickets created, you can disable ticket creation for a specific contact by going into the ticket itself, finding the "<strong>Tickets Auto-creation</strong>" toggle in the contact information, and switching it to the inactive position:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild6139-3765-4534-b963-656438316630/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">For faster and more efficient searching of the tickets you need, you can use filters in the Tickets section itself:</div><div class="t-redactor__text">There are general filters by various parameters, for example:</div><div class="t-redactor__text"><ul><li data-list="bullet">Owner</li><li data-list="bullet">Status</li><li data-list="bullet">Date of creation and etc.</li></ul></div><div class="t-redactor__text">Or use quick filters, sorting only your tickets, or all of them:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild6535-3866-4164-a439-336562353130/image.png"><h2  class="t-redactor__h2">Display of tickets in the contact card</h2><div class="t-redactor__text">The "Tickets" block on the contacts page is intended to display all tickets associated with a specific contact.</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3130-3833-4862-b362-346338366263/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text"><ul><li data-list="bullet">By default, the block is open and displays a list of linked tickets.</li><li data-list="bullet">If the number of tickets is more than 5, a vertical scroll appears inside the list, allowing you to view all tickets linked to the contact.</li><li data-list="bullet">Clicking on the "Tickets" header collapses or expands the accordion.</li><li data-list="bullet">Tickets are displayed in order by creation date (newest first).</li></ul></div><div class="t-redactor__text">Each ticket in the list contains the following elements:<br /><ul><li data-list="bullet">Channel icon (email, Telegram, etc.)</li><li data-list="bullet">Ticket ID</li><li data-list="bullet">Ticket name — abbreviated; hovering displays the full name.

It describes the list of services provided, response speed, service level, rights and obligations of both parties.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">Using an SLA when configuring communication channels in Upservice will allow you to adhere to deadlines when providing responses to clients and not go beyond the timeframes for completing requests.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">In order to configure an SLA, you need to connect one of the available communication channels with Upservice. You can read about how to connect a website form, online chat, Telegram bot, WhatsApp, email, Personal account, and External channel to Upservice in the "Contacts and chats" section.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">After connecting the required communication channel, go to the "Channel Settings" tab in the "Contacts" section and select the communication channel where you want to configure the SLA:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3766-6633-4639-b836-643962333630/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">Scroll down the communication channel settings to the "SLA" toggle and activate it.

After filling in the SLA, click "Save":</div><div class="t-redactor__text"><strong>Task based on a client's request:</strong></div><div class="t-redactor__text">When you create a task from a client's message in a communication channel where SLA time is set, the fields "Complete by, Contact, SLA tracking object, Channel" in the request will be filled out automatically by the system and cannot be edited (this is done so that employees do not violate deadline obligations to clients):</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3933-3732-4432-b538-623331323362/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">Your client will be able to track the progress of their request. Upservice will send them a link to the request in the communication channel through which the client contacted the company, and will notify them about the progress of work on it (in progress, completed, or rejected). If the request was created by an operator and not from a client's message, the notification will be sent to the client's email, or if no email is specified, via SMS to the client's phone number.</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3239-3530-4563-b865-373637633666/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">It is also possible to add the SLA function when creating a record in the Directory:</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild6130-3862-4063-a632-313831626531/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">Adding the SLA function in the directory is convenient for subsequently keeping track of the number of requests, for example, that come into your channels. Thus, when linking a request to a directory record that has an SLA set, the SLA will automatically be pulled into the request.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">To do this, when creating a request, you simply need to specify your directory record (where the SLA is indicated) as the SLA tracking object, and the execution deadline will be pulled automatically.</div><img src="https://static.tildacdn.com/tild3232-3365-4139-a232-386532316530/image.png"><div class="t-redactor__text">To monitor the quality of request execution according to SLA, the system provides a "Quality of service report (Tasks with SLA)".

When sending messages, the system takes into account which numbers and emails you have chosen and sends messages exactly through the selected channels.</div><h3  class="t-redactor__h3">General behavior when sending messages</h3><div class="t-redactor__text">When sending a message, the system checks how many contact values are specified and which of them are selected for sending. The further logic depends on whether one number/email or several are specified.</div><div class="t-redactor__text">Briefly, the logic looks like this:</div><div class="t-redactor__text">· if only one phone number is selected — messages are sent to this number, even if messages previously went to another number;</div><div class="t-redactor__text">· if only one email is selected — messages are sent to this email, even if messages previously went to another address;</div><div class="t-redactor__text">· if several phone numbers are filled in — when sending, you select the desired number in a modal window, and the message is sent to the selected number;</div><div class="t-redactor__text">· if several email addresses are filled in — when sending, you select the desired email in a modal window, and the message is sent to the selected address.</div><h3  class="t-redactor__h3">Sending messages with a single phone number</h3><div class="t-redactor__text">If only one phone number is specified and selected for the client, the system uses it to send all messages via telephone channels.
