Automation Tools
Process your tickets much faster by delegating the day-do-day routine to our system. Focus on things that really matter.
Rules
Assign users, labels or put your Linnworks orders on Hold automatically with our flexible rules system.
Access Rights needed: Tools => Automation (View & Edit)
Creating rules can save you a lot of time dealing with incoming tickets. You can set up rules to automatically allocate incoming tickets to a specific folder, automatically assign team members or give them Priority.
Creating a Rule
In order to create a rule, please visit the Tools => Automation => Rules tab and press the Create Rule button.
Each rule has its own name and can be turned ON/OFF with just one click.
Basically, each rule consists of a block of conditions & a block of actions that will be performed once conditions are met.
Rule Conditions
All conditions are grouped into categories:
Message
Ticket
Customer
Order
Product
Each category contains multiple objects. For example, the Message category has the following objects:
Text (a text of a message itself)
Subject (a thread subject)
Language (a language of a text of a message)
You are able to create complex conditions by using OR & AND buttons:
Rule Actions
Once conditions are met, the system will perform the actions you chose.
Here is a description of all possible actions:
Update Ticket Status: this action sets a status of a ticket, which can be Resolved or Not Set (Not Resolved).
Update Ticket Priority: this action sets a priority (SLA) for a ticket. You can have a number of priorities at the same time. To learn more about Priorities & SLA, please visit this page.
Allocate into Label: this action assigns a ticket with labels that you already created. You may choose more than one label.
Allocate User: this action assigns a user to a ticket. Assigned users will see this ticket at their My Tickets folder.
Archive Ticket: this action moves a ticket into the Archive folder.
Mark as Read: this action marks a ticket as Read.
Change Order Tag, Change Order Lock State, Change Order Park State: if you have a Linnworks account integrated into Replyco, then Replyco can interact with your Linnworks orders if such an order is attached to a ticket.
Once done, click the Save button.
Rules Order
When a ticket arrives, the system scans it and applies all the relevant active rules you have.
Sometimes you might have rules with similar conditions, but the actions might differ.
Replyco allows you to control the order of rules applied. Rules on the top will be applied first, while rules on the bottom will be applied after. Hence, the more any particular rule is important to you, the lower it should be placed.
To change the order of a particular rule, just drag'n'drop it using the sandwich icon.
Please note that the Replyco system runs your rules automatically ONLY when a new incoming message arrives into a ticket. This means that manually created tickets and messages sent outside of Replyco and then pulled in as tickets WILL NOT be affected by rules.
Templates
Tired of sending the same text again and again? Bin that! Just create templates that will save you hours of typing each day.
Access Rights needed for creation and editing: Tools => Automation (View & Edit)
