Can I disable automatic ticket creation for calls?

Question

Can I disable automatic ticket creation for calls in Talk?

Answer 

It is not possible to disable automatic ticket creation for calls. You can only disable the creation of tickets for abandoned calls. To adjust the ticket creation setting for abandoned calls, see the article: Managing Talk line settings.

If you do not wish to manage Talk tickets, you can create a trigger that automatically solves Talk tickets at the moment of their creation.

To create the trigger:

1. Add a new trigger.
2. Under Meet ALL of the following conditions:
   
   • Ticket | Is | Created
     
3. Under Meet ANY of the following conditions:
   
   • Channel | Is | Phone call (incoming)
   • Channel | Is | Phone call (outgoing)
4. Under Actions select:
   
   • Status | Closed
5. Click Create.

Note: If you disable Voicemail for a Talk line and an inbound caller is not routed to an agent or an external number, the call is considered Non-answered and no ticket is created. Non-answered calls are different from Abandoned calls and ticket creation for Non-answered calls is disabled by default.
