  • A payment request (invoice, reimbursement request, legal expenses memory) already sent to the recipient,
  • A payment request at a « Draft » status.

To send a payment request at a « Draft » status, the recipient of the request must be identified.

When an invoice has been rejected, you can send a request to the invoice recipient for details about the rejection.

In the “General information” section :

VIEWING SENT TICKETS

In "Tickets issued" you will find a list of issued tickets. The "Actions required" tab shows all tickets for which an action is required on your part, i.e. tickets with the status "Awaiting information" and "Resolved".

The expected action depends on the status of the ticket.


To improve the user experience, the interface of Chorus Pro offers the possibility to manage its display (1) by choosing numbers to navigate on the different pages of your dashboard.

To view the detail of the ticket and to process it, click on the number of the ticket concerned.

A ticket in "Open" status does not appear in the "Required actions" tab. It is possible to find it by using the "All (except closed)" tab.

The table below lists the statutes related to the processing of the tickets issued :

The « Search » tab of the « Sent requests » area allows you to search the tickets according to several criteria. In the « Search criteria » section : You must enter or select at least one of the proposed criteria.

In the search bar :

The user must enter or select at least one criterion from those offered.

Examples :

  • Request number
  • Category
  • Request status
  • Etc.

Click on the magnifying glass to display the results.

Click on "Reset filters" to delete the search criteria.

From the search results, it is possible to export the results in a format that can be used by a spreadsheet program (e.g. Excel, LibreOffice Calc, ...).

To view the details of the request for assistance, click on the ticket number displayed in the table.

It allows you to obtain:

General information about the ticket:

- Date of creation

- Category and sub-category

- Status

- Type of object and object number (if it is a business help request)

The content of the ticket

- The description of the request for help.

- Information about the issuing organization.

- The information of the recipient organization (if it is a request for help to the trade).

- The history of the ticket's activities.
- The response or request for additional information entered by the recipient of the request.

- Attachments added by the sender and, if applicable, by the receiver.

The tab "All (except closed)" gives access to all the tickets issued, for all the structures to which the user is attached.

The "All (except closed)" tab allows you to view all the tickets (or requests for help) issued according to their status.

The statuses returned are: "Open", "Waiting for information", "Solved".

Only tickets with the status "Closed" are not displayed. To find them, you must consult the "Closed" tab.

By clicking on the columns "Number", "Short description", "Category", "Subcategory" and "Status", it is possible to group and classify the tickets issued in alphabetical order or in reverse alphabetical order. The issued tickets can also be sorted by date of creation by clicking on the "Created" column.

The "Closed" tab allows you to find all the tickets issued in "Closed" status.

An issued ticket changes to "Closed" status in two cases:
- If the issuer has manually closed the ticket by clicking on "Action" and then "Close Ticket" to indicate that they no longer need support to respond to their request for help.

- If the issuer has clicked on "Accept Solution" that has been offered.

Please note : it is possible to close a request before getting the answer from the recipient when the question is no longer relevant. You just have to search it and close it.

As illustrated in session 1.2, i.e. in connected mode, it is now possible to set tickets being created to "Draft" status. As a result, you have the possibility to come back to a ticket later to edit and submit it or even delete it. For example, to delete a ticket, you will need to click on the "Drafts" tab as shown in the following figure:

Once on the "Drafts" tab, the "delete" button (1) is grayed out by default. It is grayed out as soon as a ticket is selected as in this picture:

When the line corresponding to the ticket you want to delete is selected, click on the button (1) "Delete" and you will see a confirmation window for deleting the selected ticket:

To finalize the delete of the ticket, click the "Delete Draft" button and you will see the ticket disappear from your ticket list interface in draft status.

PROCESS A TICKET

When the recipient of the request for assistance considers that it does not have all the elements necessary to process it, it may request additional information from the issuer.

 

In this case, the ticket appears in the status "Waiting for information" in the "Actions required" tab.

After clicking on the ticket number, the details are displayed on the screen.

The question asked by the recipient appears in the "Activities" tab of the ticket.

 

To reply and provide the additional information requested by the recipient structure, click on the "Actions" button and then "Reply to request".

 

Note: this button is only available to the sender when the ticket is in "Awaiting information" status.

A "Reply to request" window will then appear:

 

Your response is displayed in the ticket's activity stream.

Add/remove attachments if needed in the "Attachments" tab.

 

Tickets for which the recipient has provided a response are changed to "Resolved" status.

They appear in the list of tickets to be processed in the "Actions required" tab.

 

To see the answer, click on the ticket number; the information can be found in the "Activities" tab.

The ticket must then be closed to close it permanently if the answer provided by the recipient solved the problem, or sent back to the recipient if the answer is not appropriate.

If the response from the recipient is not appropriate:
- Click on the ticket number in the "Actions required" tab.
- Select the "Actions" button.
- Click on "Reject Solution".

- Fill in the reason in the window that appears on the screen.

- Click on "Reject solution".

The ticket is then sent back to the recipient and changes back to "Open" status.

If the answer is appropriate, you must accept the solution, which will close the ticket.

To close a ticket, it must be in "Resolved" status.

- Click on the ticket number in the "Required Actions" tab.

- Select the "Actions" button.

- Click on "Accept Solution".

The ticket will then change its status to "Closed". It is no longer visible in the "Actions required" tab and will appear in the "Closed" tab of "Tickets issued".

Note: It is possible to close a ticket in "Open" status before the receiver responds when the question asked is no longer relevant.

The ticket will then change its status to "Closed" and will be moved to the "Closed" tab of "Tickets issued".
