Tasks for Service Desk Operations...
Repetitive tasks in the realm of IT
support can be both time-
consuming and monotonous,
irrespective of an agent's level of
experience, be it an entry-level or
seasoned professional. These
routine activities are where the
concept of IT support automation
becomes invaluable.
Blindly automating everything is not
a prudent approach. Instead, it's
crucial to be discerning about what
processes to automate.

Top 7 Service Desk Automation Idea
1. Ticket Routing
Automated ticket assignment
guarantees that every support
request is directed to a qualified
agent. For instance, technical
support problems are allocated to
agents possessing the necessary
technical proficiency, while issues
related to billing or returns are
directed to agents well-versed in
return policies and procedures.

2. Email Management
Managing emails on the IT service desk
can be a complex task, especially when it
involves tasks like sorting, routing, and
providing timely responses to customers.
Automation can be a valuable tool in this
process, as it can assist in classifying and
organizing emails into different
categories. Once emails are categorized,
service desk agents can employ RPA
(Robotic Process Automation) bots to
promptly respond to customer inquiries.

4. Incident Management
By implementing service desk
automation, service desk agents can
create ticket escalation rules that
streamline the routing of significant
support incidents to the most
appropriate team members based on
your organizational structure. This
guarantees that urgent problems are
quickly addressed by the individuals
most qualified to resolve them,
ultimately improving the overall
quality of customer support.

5. Knowledge Base Management
An effectively organized knowledge base
has the potential to transform your
customer service operations. It can
independently address problems,
decrease the number of support requests,
and provide customers with an
exceptional self-service experience. To
enhance the customer experience even
further, you can fine-tune your knowledge
base to prioritize keywords. This ensures
that users can effortlessly locate self-help
articles or frequently asked questions that
are pertinent to their concerns.

6. SLA Tracking & Compliance
Automated workflows offer
significant benefits in terms of
monitoring Service Level Agreement
(SLA) compliance and handling
breaches. Automation eliminates
the need to rely on tickets reaching
critical stages or surpassing optimal
response times. Instead, you can
establish proactive alerts according
to SLA criteria, guaranteeing that
you have full oversight and
authority over the operations of
your IT service desk.

7. Password Reset
Utilizing automation in this
procedure allows service desk agents
to authenticate user identity through
the automated posing of multifactor
questions and cross-referencing all
the information stored within the
system. After successful verification,
RPA (Robotic Process Automation)
bots can promptly provide users with
a link to reset their password.
