Working a customer's thread in the Inbox

Owner, Manager, Member · 6 steps

Every customer's calls, emails and work gather in one thread in the Inbox. You leave a note for your team, take the thread so everyone knows who is on it, and archive it when it is handled. It comes back by itself when the customer calls again.
