Building your ticket forms

The ticket form feature in Trakdesk allows you collect and store important information from your customers. Whether it's information about an order or computer, printer or router, you can create custom forms for each of the services you offer to customers and insert them into tickets.

Ticket forms can be accessed by both agents and customers with creating a ticket. Agents can add a single or multiple forms to existing tickets. This will enable you to provide support for multiple products and services, seamlessly collect required data from customers and store them in one place for easy access and management. Customers can access Global ticket forms from your customer support portal when creating a new ticket.

Agents can access both Global and Internal ticket forms from your helpdesk support portal when creating or updating tickets. Additionally, internal ticket forms can be restricted to specific agents and groups. This is useful especially if you have multiple groups of agents providing support to several companies. You have the ability to restrict each ticket form and its data to selected agents.
