You can create different variations for ticket updaters. Probably, the most popular one is to ask clients to submit credentials after they have submitted a ticket to your team. We&#8217;re going to go in-depth and look at different use cases to understand this feature. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Firstly, it is handy to point out that actions start at the top and finish at the bottom. Let&#8217;s look at the options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Enable <ul><li>Start this ticket updater<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Ticket Admin <ul><li>The user that will be used to post messages to tickets. This is a WHMCS administrator account<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Message Delay <ul><li>The top box is hours and the bottom box is minutes. This updater is configured to start 1 minute after ticket submission<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Active Department <ul><li>The department the updater will post messages too<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Message <ul><li>The message to be posted to the ticket<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Set Ticket Status<ul><li>Change the status on the ticket after the updater has run<\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li> Ticket Status <ul><li>Set the ticket to this status after posting message <\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dev.gb.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/wsc-ticket-updater.jpg\" alt=\"WSC Ticket Updater\" class=\"wp-image-2671\" width=\"841\" height=\"834\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Creating different versions &#8211; Appologizing for delays<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, let&#8217;s create a new updater. This WSC Ticket Updater will post a message apologizing for the delay in answering tickets submitted to the <strong>support department<\/strong> and will run after a ticket has been on the <strong>open status<\/strong> for <strong>4 hours<\/strong>. Ok, so let&#8217;s look at how that looks in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsc.pw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">WSC<\/a> UI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"738\" height=\"539\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dev.gb.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/wsc-ticket-updater-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2672\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But if we wanted to, we could create a special support ticket status. Something like &#8220;Urgent&#8221;. And then WSC could reassign all tickets that have been updated by our updater to that ticket status. So this way we would know who has been waiting the longest for a response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For other useful posts on WSC.
