Similar Tickets
Agents can link related tickets to manage dependencies and avoid duplicate resolutions. Linking tickets helps in:
- Connecting duplicate requests submitted by different users
- Managing related tickets that are dependent on one another
- Providing a unified resolution when multiple tickets address the same issue
Once linked, agents can navigate between tickets easily, apply bulk actions, and ensure consistency in responses.
