Managing customer support through emails, spreadsheets, and manual follow-ups can quickly become difficult. Tickets may be missed, response times can increase, and managers may struggle to track team performance.<\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>Helpdesk module in Odoo 19<\/b> provides a central platform to manage support tickets, assign requests, track SLAs, collect customer feedback, and connect support activities with other Odoo applications.<\/span><\/p>\n

This guide gives a quick overview of the main features available in Odoo 19 Helpdesk.<\/span><\/p>\n

Helpdesk Overview<\/b><\/h2>\n

When you open the Helpdesk module, the <\/span>Overview dashboard<\/b> gives agents and managers a quick view of current ticket activity.<\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>My Tickets<\/b> section shows the logged-in agent’s open workload, including ticket priorities and pending requests.<\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>My Performance<\/b> section provides key metrics such as closed tickets, SLA performance, and customer ratings.<\/span><\/p>\n

Below this, each Helpdesk team is displayed with key information such as open, urgent, unassigned, and closed tickets.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"How<\/p>\n

Managing Tickets<\/b><\/h2>\n

From the <\/span>Tickets<\/b> menu, users can access:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • My Tickets<\/b> \u2013 tickets assigned to the logged-in agent.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • All Tickets<\/b> \u2013 all tickets available based on the user’s access rights.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Tickets can move through different stages such as:<\/span><\/p>\n

    New \u2192 In Progress \u2192 Waiting for Customer \u2192 Solved<\/b><\/p>\n

    Stages can be customised based on the organisation’s support process.
    \n\"How<\/span><\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Reporting<\/b><\/h2>\n

    Odoo 19 Helpdesk includes reporting tools to monitor support performance.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Tickets Analysis<\/b><\/h3>\n

    Helps analyse ticket volume, trends, agents, teams, and priorities.<\/span><\/p>\n

    SLA Status Analysis<\/b><\/h3>\n

    Shows whether tickets are meeting the service targets defined by the organisation.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Customer Ratings<\/b><\/h3>\n

    Displays customer satisfaction feedback collected after ticket resolution.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"How
    \n<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    Setting Up a Helpdesk Team<\/b><\/h2>\n

    Go to:<\/span><\/p>\n

    Helpdesk \u2192 Configuration \u2192 Helpdesk Teams<\/b><\/p>\n

    Each team can be configured based on its purpose, such as Customer Care, IT Support, or VIP Support.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Important settings include:<\/span><\/p>\n

    Visibility & Assignment<\/b><\/h3>\n

    Administrators can control who can access the team and configure automatic ticket assignment.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Tickets can be distributed based on workload or routed using tags.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    Support Channels<\/b><\/h3>\n

    Odoo allows customers to create tickets through different channels, including:<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    • Email Alias<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Live Chat<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Website Form<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      This helps businesses manage requests from different sources in one place.<\/span><\/p>\n

      \"\"<\/p>\n

      Help Center and Self-Service<\/b><\/h2>\n

      The Helpdesk module can integrate with <\/span>Knowledge, Community Forum, and eLearning<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

      These tools allow customers to find answers without always contacting a support agent, helping reduce repetitive requests.<\/span><\/p>\n

      \"\"<\/p>\n

      SLA Policies<\/b><\/h2>\n

      SLA policies define how quickly specific support requests should be handled.<\/span><\/p>\n

      For example, an urgent ticket may need to reach a particular stage within two hours.<\/span><\/p>\n

      Go to:<\/span><\/p>\n

      Helpdesk \u2192 Configuration \u2192 SLA Policies<\/b><\/p>\n

      Policies can be configured based on teams, priorities, tags, customers, and other conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n

      \"\"<\/p>\n

      Customer Ratings and Ticket Closing<\/b><\/h2>\n

      Odoo can automatically request customer feedback when a ticket is resolved.<\/span><\/p>\n

      The Helpdesk module also supports:<\/span><\/p>\n

        \n
      • Customer-controlled ticket closure<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Automatic closing of inactive tickets<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        These options help keep the support queue organised and improve reporting accuracy.<\/span><\/p>\n

        \"\"<\/p>\n

        After-Sales Services<\/b><\/h2>\n

        Odoo Helpdesk can also connect support requests with other business processes.<\/span><\/p>\n

        Depending on the installed applications, agents can perform actions such as:<\/span><\/p>\n

          \n
        • Create refunds<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Generate coupons<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Process returns<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Create repair orders<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Create Field Service tasks<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          \"\"<\/p>\n

          Conclusion<\/b><\/h2>\n

          The <\/span>Odoo 19 Helpdesk module<\/b> provides more than basic ticket tracking. It combines ticket management, automatic assignment, SLA monitoring, reporting, customer feedback, self-service, and after-sales activities in one application.<\/span><\/p>\n

          For businesses already using Odoo, Helpdesk can provide a more organised support workflow while giving agents better visibility and managers clearer performance insights.<\/span><\/p>\n

          Best practice:<\/b> Start with a simple ticket workflow, clear assignment rules, and realistic SLA targets. Additional automation and self-service features can then be introduced as the support process grows.<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
