This screen provides all needs connected to customer service. Transaction screen contains informations about the current served ticket such as:
- Ticket number
- Chosen language
- Waiting time of the ticket
- Total time: waiting time + transaction time
- Selected service(s)
- Ticket comment / Customer information if needed
Ticket comment / Customer information can be saved with the 'save' icon to make it appear in the statistics module:
Ticket actions
Clerks are able to perform actions to the ticket like:
- Recall: If the first call was unanswered by the customer
- Missing: In case of a missing customer
- Waiting list: If the ticket needs additional processing, the customer should wait somewhere else and in the meantime
- Redirect: The ticket will be placed into the queue of another clerk/counter/service
- Add service: Another service(s) can be added simultaneously
Redirect types
The system supports four ways of ticket redirection:
-
If redirect the ticket to a service, it will be closed on the actual keyboard (if there is no other service to be handled) and can be called by any other clerk, who can arrange this new service.
-
If redirect a ticket to a counter, the clerk can chose a counter to redirect to if that specific counter can handle that redirected ticket’s service.
-
If redirect a ticket to a clerk, the initiator clerk can chose another clerk who can handle the ticket’s service.
-
It is also possible to send back the ticket to the previous counter in case the ticket had been already redirected from one of them.
You can redirect to other counter/clerk only in case the there is a service on the ticket which can be handled by the target counter/clerk.
If enabled, then when a ticket redirected to a service, it won’t be closed immediately on the keyboard, the redirection actually only adds the new service to the ticket, and then the clerk has the possibility to close the ticket (any other clerk can call the ticket by the new service), or can redirect to a selected counter/clerk.
With this option enabled, after doing a transaction by clerk 1, the ticket can be redirected to clerk 2 with a different service.
The system will ask which logged in Clerk, which available Counter or which Service the user wants to redirect the ticket and if there has been any transaction made or not . Either if there has been any transaction made or not – redirected ticket will keep it’s priority – if the global/local setting is not overwritten.
Closing ticket
To close a ticket you have to use the 'Stop' button. There are two ways of closing a ticket with or without transaction. If you would like to close the ticket without transaction click on the arrow icon next to the Stop button:
