Task lists are created to help agents keep track of actions they must take to solve common types of tickets. The task list is added to a ticket within the Zendesk Agent Workspace, reducing the need to switch between tools while working on a ticket.
Adding a task list to a ticket
Adding a task list to a ticket makes it easier to keep track of all the actions you probably need to complete to solve the ticket. You can add only one task list to a ticket at a time.
-
In a ticket, click the tasks icon (
) to open a list of the task lists available to be added to the ticket.
- Click Add task list and select the task list you want to add to the ticket.
Completing tasks
Task lists function as an agent's checklist within a ticket. As they complete tasks, they can check them off and, if necessary, uncheck them again if a task needs additional work.
During the EAP, all tasks are optional and don't affect an agent's ability to solve and close a ticket.
