Agent Workspace Issues
Posted Sep 03, 2020
For some reason I'm unable to submit a support ticket, so I'm posting here as I don't think addressing multiple issues via a support chat is going to be effective.
We switched over to the agent workspace about a month ago because we want to start using chat, however we have run into multiple issues. I'd like to know if any of these are bugs, or if there are plans to fix/change them (or if anyone has any awesome workarounds)! Here are the issues in order of priority
1. Opening a ticket always opens at the top (i.e. the oldest) comment. This was fine when tickets were ordered with the comment box at the top, but now every time every agent opens a ticket, they need to scroll down or use the end button to get to the comment box
2. The screen doesn't scroll down when typing. I submitted a ticket for this in July but haven't had a response yet, when typing in the ticket the text will often go off the bottom of the screen, which means the agent has to manually scroll down to see what they have written
3. If an agent uses the PgUp button to attempt to scroll back up their screen while they are typing a comment, this shifts all the ticket data to the left. The only way to fix it is to reload the ticket

I'd recommend reaching out to our Customer Care team using the steps provided in this article: Contacting Zendesk Customer Support
They'll be able to take a look at your account and see what is causing this issue.
Thanks!

A few of my agents are experiencing this issue today. Has something changed in the last 24 hours? They can't scroll. The shift+tab solution above has been a temporary solution but they don't see side conversations or linked parent tickets.

Hello CJ Johnson - I read the first comment as a part of the issue when the composer was not fixed and customers had to scroll down to get to the composer. Now, that the composer is fixed, it is always available on the screen no matter where you are in the conversation log. Tracking the order of messages request here: https://support.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/4409222725530-Change-the-order-of-the-comments-as-an-agent-when-viewing-a-ticket

1264663901569 There still seems to be no way to change the order of comments, issue 1 in the post. Can you weigh in on this, as this states this was fixed and is marked completed?

We recently migrated to Agent workspace and we have some ongoing complaints--
1) No ability to chat amongst agents. With Zendesk Chat the agents would chat between themselves to collaborate on issues or give each other a heads up that a chat was about to be transferred.
2)There is no sound to notify an agent of an incoming transferred chat from another agent. This is very helpful when you are working on multiple things at a time.
3)There is no sound notification when a client replies to an ongoing chat. We oftentimes are working on multiple chats or tickets so that sound or better notification is needed.
4)I'm also getting complaints that it is slower to loading times with the Agent Workspace.

Thanks for reporting the issues, Tobias Hermanns. I'm documenting them and will report back updates. Would it be possible to create a new feedback post for the new issues? I ask as this one is old and the original bugs reported have been fixed so it will be easy to track these new issues if we can create a new post?

I still have 2 issues with Agent Workspace.
1. Sometimes a new comment isn't loading in open ticket tab it shows scroll down but no content equal is agent or end-user update. I need close the tab and reopen them to see new reply or reply I sent out.
2. SLOW always on many points
Multiple ticket tabs open, longer tickets, closing tab it just take time time time which is annoying.
Next new thing since today is done events will trigger twice like ticket doing one event log like add tag and some field change in a 2nd event in same minute is not able to detect first event and duplicate things.
So feel free to be in touch with me to see all issues and work on them.

Hi Amy,
What about the issue that tabs when long idle can't get customer updates publish within the ticket?
We have so many agents need refresh the tab to see customer update which is not push to history.
Very annoying.
Thanks
Tobias
