  • Then create a group of employees who will perform order confirmation work (or choose an existing group) and set up assignment rules for the group. 

  • Create a Category according to the above form

Name : “Order”

Code : “DH”

Parent category: (not choose)

Assign to group: (Responsible group 1)

SLA:  Choose SLA that you set up

  • Create Sub category: Continue pressing the Create Category button and enter information

Name : “Order confirmation”

Code : “DH”

Parent category: “Order

Assign to group: (Responsible group 2 )
