In this tutorial, we will specially introduce the process of how to manage the Ticket "Support Request", following the standard process of managing incoming Events explained in last tutorial.</p><p>Support Request is a kind of Ticket which the incoming Events (email, phonecall, fax, etc.) of your customers are assigned to, and which is a very important Ticket in ERP5 CRM because it allows you to manage all the interactions between your customer, your company and your supplier effectively, which helps consolidating the customer relations of your company.</p> </details> <test> <table class="test" style="display: none;"> <tbody> <tr style="opacity: 1;"> <td colspan="3"><span metal:use-macro="container/Zuite_viewTestMacroLibrary/macros/init_test_environment">init</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td>openAndWait</td> <td>${base_url}/Zuite_setUpIncomingEventTest</td> <td></td> </tr> <tr class="" style="opacity: 1; z-index: 0; "> <td>verifyTextPresent</td> <td>Init Ok</td> <td></td> </tr> <tr style="opacity: 1;"> <td colspan="3"><span metal:use-macro="container/Zuite_viewTestMacroLibrary/macros/wait_for_activities"> Wait for activities </span></td> </tr> <tr class="" style="opacity: 1; z-index: 0; "> <td colspan="3"><span metal:use-macro="container/Zuite_viewTestMacroLibrary/macros/login_as_functional_test_user">Login As Functional Test User</span></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </test> </section><div style="position: absolute; left: 478px; top: 155px; opacity: 0.5;" id="remove_slide_0" class="remove_slide_button"></div><div style="position: absolute; left: 378px; top: 155px; opacity: 0;" id="edit_slide_0" class="edit_slide_button"></div><section> <h1>Agenda</h1> <ul> <li>Create an incoming Event from the client's document</li> <li>Define the Recipient - the team member responsible to reply to client</li> <li>Create the Follow Up Ticket - a Support Request Ticket</li> <li>Deliver the Event</li> <li>Reply to the client</li> </ul> <details open="open"></details> <test> <table class="test" style="display: none;"> <tbody></tbody> </table> </test> </section><div style="position:absolute; left:618px; top:155px;" id="remove_slide_1" class="remove_slide_button"></div><div style="position:absolute; left:518px; top:155px;" id="edit_slide_1" class="edit_slide_button"></div><section class="illustration"> <h1>The incoming Event workflow</h1> <img src="http://www.erp5.com/user-Events.Event.Workflow?format=" type="image/svg+xml" title="The incoming Event workflow" alt="The incoming Event workflow"> <details open="open"> <p> As you have learned from last tutorial, the second part of this illustration shows the standard process of Incoming Events: <strong>Declare as Received</strong> , <strong>Define the Event's Recipient</strong> , <strong>Create a Follow Up Ticket</strong> and <strong>Deliver</strong> </p><p>Now we will explain in detail how to practice this process in managing Support Requests.</p> </details> <test> <table class="test" style="display: none;"> <tbody></tbody> </table> </test> </section><div style="position:absolute; left:758px; top:155px;" id="remove_slide_2" class="remove_slide_button"></div><div style="position:absolute; left:658px; top:155px;" id="edit_slide_2" class="edit_slide_button"></div><section class="illustration"> <h1>Scenario</h1> <img type="image/svg+xml" src="http://www.erp5.com/user-Howto.Manage.Support.Requests.Scenario?format=" title="Scenario: a request for support of ERP5 instance configuration" alt="Scenario: a request for support of ERP5 instance configuration"> <details open="open"> <p>This tutorial is based on a scenario that will help you understand how to manage Support Requests and the role of this kind of Ticket.</p><p>Z Company is an electricity supplier, one of VIFIB clients who are using the ERP5 instance. John Scott Doh is the marketing manager of Z Company. From this year, as the other departments of Z Company, he starts to implement the ERP5 to manage his marketing department, and specially the ERP5 CRM for his business with his clients. In the very beginning of using this new instance, he met some difficulties in the configuration of the ERP5 instance, so he wrote to the ERP5 support team asking for help. When the ERP5 support team receives the email from this client, someone in the team will create a new incoming Event in ERP5 in order to ask for someone who is capable to answer to the request of John Doh.</p><p>Now please follow this scenario, combine with the standard incoming Events process you have learned, to see what's the steps to take in ERP5 to manage the support requests from your clients.</p> </details> <test> <table class="test" style="display: none;"> <tbody></tbody> </table> </test> </section><div style="position:absolute; left:898px; top:155px;" id="remove_slide_3" class="remove_slide_button"></div><div style="position:absolute; left:798px; top:155px;" id="edit_slide_3" class="edit_slide_button"></div><section class="screenshot"> <h1>Find the request sender John Doh in your ERP5</h1> <img alt="Browse for John Doh in your ERP5" title="Browse for John Doh in your ERP5" type="image/svg+xml" src="http://www.erp5.com/user-Howto.Manage.Support.Requests.Browse.Persons?format="> <details open="open"> <p> In ERP5 CRM, in order to better manage the customer relations, once we receive an incoming email, phonecall or fax from our clients, we will have to <strong>create a new incoming Event from the support request sender's document</strong> in order to tell our team that we receive a message from our client. In this way, all the support requests from our clients will be recorded immediately, and be assigned to personnel to handle them later. </p><p>In our example, we will first create an incoming Event to inform our ERP5 support team that we have received an email from John Doh who is asking for help. As it is John Doh who sent this email, we will create the incoming Event directly from John Doh's Person Document, in order for the Event to be linked easily to John Doh in ERP5.</p><p> In order to <strong>create an incoming Event from the request sender John Doh's document</strong> , the <strong>first step</strong> will be to <strong>reach John Doh's person document</strong> in ERP5.
