Request Steps
This page describe how to add ticket progress for customers on the service desk portal to show them how much is yet to resolution.
Discover this feature with an interactive demo 👀
The Requests Steps feature shows the current progress of issues on the Jira customer portal. Thanks to that, it’s easier for customers to understand what stage their ticket is at and how much is left to do.
With this, you provide your customers with advanced Jira ticket tracking, which can impact CSAT.
This is an example of a shipping order. The customers know what the process looks like and how many steps are ahead. It’s an easy way to simplify the issue’s workflow explanation. Steps are matched with statuses in the queue.
