Ticket History

The Ticket History view shows the full transcript of a digital interaction — webchat, email, SMS, WhatsApp, or Facebook — along with a summary of the interaction and any previous contact history with the same customer.

It is accessed from the Record History page. For any interaction that is not a voice call, a ticket history button appears alongside the More info button in the results row. Clicking it opens the transcript in a new browser tab.

The screen is split into two panels:

  • The left panel shows the full message thread between the agent and the customer in chronological order.
  • The right panel shows a summary of the interaction and, where relevant, any previous interaction history with the same customer.

Interaction pane icons

A number of icons appear within the interaction pane alongside messages and at the top of the view. The table below describes what each one does.

IconDescription
Reply
Opens the agent interface to reply to the thread. Allows you to send a follow-up message to the customer directly from the ticket history view.
Add note
Adds an internal note to the interaction. Notes are visible to users with access to the ticket but are not sent to the customer.
Edit message
Opens the text editor for the selected message, allowing you to modify what is stored on the database. Use this to remove sensitive information entered in error — for example, payment details or inappropriate language. An edit indicator appears next to any message that has been modified.
Attachment
Indicates a file attached to a message. The file size is shown alongside the icon.
Delete attachment
Permanently removes the attachment from the interaction. This action cannot be undone. Only visible to users with the relevant permission.
Over exception
Indicates the message was flagged as over the exception threshold set on the associated result code.
Over SLA
Indicates the message was replied to after the SLA time had elapsed. Hover over the icon to see the exact time the SLA was breached.
Thread closed
Marks the point in the transcript where the interaction thread was closed.
Message unable to be sent

Indicates that the message could not be sent. 
Automated message
Indicates the message was sent automatically by the system — for example, a no-response timeout message.
