Default Statuses
Zupport comes with three default ticket statuses:
- Open — Ticket is active and needs attention
- Pending — Waiting for customer or external response
- Closed — Ticket is resolved
Custom Statuses
You can create additional statuses to better represent your workflow. Common examples:
- In Review — Ticket is being reviewed internally
- Waiting for Refund — Refund is being processed
- Escalated — Ticket has been escalated to a senior agent
- On Hold — Temporarily paused
- Waiting for Vendor — Awaiting third-party response
Creating Custom Statuses
- Go to Settings → Ticket Statuses
- Click Create Status
- Enter a name and choose a colour
- Set the status category (active, pending, or resolved)
- Save the status
💡 Tip: Keep your custom statuses focused and avoid creating too many. 5-8 total statuses (including defaults) is usually optimal for most teams.
