Supportbench 12.0 Release notes

Highlighted Features:

AI Columns (for AI Add-on only)

We've introduced dynamic columns that intelligently analyze your tickets and provide suggestions on when a knowledge base article should be created for the solutions found within the ticket. Additionally, it helps you determine whether the article should be internal-only or made available to your external users.

These new columns can now be added to your Data views or Case list defaults. They provide at-a-glance insights into cases that contain any data and whether an internal or external article creation is recommended.

Create cases on emails forwarded into email route

You asked, we listened! Now, with Supportbench, you can easily make cases from forwarded emails. It's as simple as forwarding an email – the system takes care of the rest. The case gets created using the info from the forwarded email, like who it's about and what it's regarding. We're all about making things easier for you, and this feature does just that.

To set this feature, you'll have to navigate to Email Configuration > Routes > Enter into your Route and check this box here:

Company/Contact Attachments Tab

You can now easily store data such as files and attachments within a contact or companies profile. All you have to do is click the "Files" Tab and "Upload"!

 

 

Once you've clicked Upload, you can either drag and drop your files or click select. And they'll be stored in a cozy table within your contact or company profile!

 

 

Workflow trigger on merge

Of course, we had to go ahead and add even more options to our already extensive workflow feature! You can now trigger workflows on merges, meaning you can automate your instance even more.

 

Out of office Replies

We decided to make it easy for agents to add an out of office reply to their Supportbench profile, especially handy for if agents are on vacation or sick.
