Escalation processes

@CLee 1176405 shakopee Thank you for submitting your question to our Community!

I’m just replying here to see if anyone uses a tier model for support. 😄 I am thinking of a workflow that would require custom statuses but I want to see if anyone else has ideas, first.

I think custom statuses seems like it would make sense to me too -- I don’t have a need for this due to my team size, but my initial thoughts would be something like:

• create a “Escalate” custom ticket status
• Make sure you are using a Team / SLA tagged to the ticket

Now do the following -- Use a custom ticket rule that uses the following criteria 

Create a ticket rule in the rule engine that states something along the lines of:

• if a ticket is updated to status: escalate 
• team/sla is: (team working ticket) -- this allows you to build a escalation rule for different teams
• update agent / team to: (escalation team / user) -- you could setup the assign to round robin or most available on the team
• change ticket status to: in progress // or keep on escalate until the next person update it.

That is kind of direction leaning towards.

Glad to see process makes sense outside my head.

Thank you for sharing @bushwhack 😄
