Users can consider Views as email folders to help their ticket processing workflow.
Each view is a collection of emails with a set common condition or criteria. Users can further customize their own views for different purposes with different conditions. Also, users can define who can access this view.
As a ticket is first created in the ticket manager, it will progress through different stages of a ticket work cycle and get assigned to different Views.
The Ticket Manager has 12 default Views included. They will appear on the Ticket sidebar once the users toggle on the corresponding Default View option under the Default View column header.
Among the 12 Default Views, five Views cannot be disabled. They are Your unsolved, Reminder, Open, Pending, and Solved.
Let’s go through the important Views in the sidebar.

Click open a ticket, the drop-down menu will showcase a list of views that the agent has the permission to access. After selecting the designated View, the agent can save the changes.
-
Rule> Assign to Viewers
Users can set up a series of conditions and actions as a rule for the system to automatically assign tickets to certain Views when the tickets are created or updated.
The conditions set forth all the prerequisites of a certain rule. Once all the qualifications are met, it will trigger a course of action for the corresponding tickets. For example, all the channels, Views and Rules have been assigned under the Admin account.
When new tickets are created or an existing ticket is updated, the system will assess the condition of the tickers and take action automatically depending on that ticket’s qualifications.
If all the new tickets meet the qualification of the Rule, the system will assign all the tickets to Your unsolved Views based on the instructed actions.
Subsequently, the ticket will be saved in the Default View and Your View. In other words, one ticket will appear in 3 Views.
Providing that the tickets don’t meet the pre-set requirements or no rule set up for the new tickets and the system only has Default Views setup, the system will assign tickets to Default View and Unassigned based on their Ticket Status when the tickets are created in the Ticket Manager system.
However, the tickets will be assigned to Your unresolved. Agents can move the tickets to the Your Unresolved view manually.
