What Does The Ticketing Module Do?

The Ticketing module links customer emails directly to support tickets in Tribe. Incoming emails sent to a configured support email address are automatically processed and either added to an existing ticket or used to create a new one.

Only emails from known contacts in Tribe are converted into tickets. Emails from unknown email addresses are shown separately, allowing you to review them and decide whether to link them to a ticket or remove them. This approach keeps your data reliable and your support administration organised.

Why Should You Use The Ticketing Module?

Using the Ticketing module helps your organisation work faster and with more clarity.

It provides:

  • Automatic ticket creation, so support questions are registered without manual effort

  • A complete communication overview, including emails, appointments, notes, and documents

  • A clear support dashboard, showing ticket status, ownership, and workload distribution

  • Better process control, through automation and smart alerts

These features reduce manual work and make it easier to follow up on customer enquiries consistently.

  1. Click the Organisation icon in the top-right corner of the screen.

  3. Click Add / Remove Modules.
