In processing a limited number of ticket types, you may often find yourself repeating the same set of actions. For example, for a ticket related to refunds, you may:
- Tag the ticket as Refund,
- Assign the ticket to the Refunds group, and
- Set the status of the ticket to Processing Refund.
Instead of doing these repeatedly, you can create a macro command using Scenarios and execute them in a single action.

Create a scenario
- Go to Admin | Agent Productivity | Scenario Automations.

- Under Actions, add the steps to perform in order. Select the task and choose the corresponding action from the given dropdowns.

Use a scenario in a single ticket

- From the Execute scenarios panel, search for your scenario, hover over it, and click Execute.
- The macro will be completed and you’ll receive a confirmation message saying “Scenario executed”.
Bulk execute scenarios

Manage scenarios
Admins can provide permissions to manage personal or shared scenarios using roles.
- Go to Admin | Roles and choose a role, e.g. Supervisor.
- Under Scenario Automation, you can change the permission to:
- Manage personal scenario automations: Agents may create scenarios only visible to them. They can execute personal and shared scenarios. They cannot manage (view, clone, modify, or delete) shared scenarios.
- Manage shared scenarios automations: Agents may create personal or shared scenarios. They can execute and manage both types of scenarios.
