Download the discovery agent and push it to company laptops.

It fills your Configuration Management Database with real assets instead of guesses.

Freshservice allows manual entry for assets discovery never finds.

Monitors, docking stations, and old switches usually need this. You can attach invoices directly to each asset record for finance.

Go to Projects, then New Project, and pick Kanban or Scrum.

Name it after the outcome, not the department.

Step 2: Link Tickets and Tasks

Attach related tickets so the project shows real work, not a wish list.

This is where release management stops being a spreadsheet nobody opens.

Send it when a ticket is resolved, not when it is closed.

The experience is still fresh, so response rates roughly double in my experience.

Đây là hình ảnh minh họa:

✓ Điểm kiểm tra: A resolved test ticket should trigger the survey email.

Step 3: Review Scores Monthly

How to Use Freshservice Response Manager

Dưới đây là hướng dẫn sử dụng từng bước.

Step 1: Find Your Repeat Questions

Sort tickets by category and look at the top five.

Those are your first canned responses.

Step 2: Write the Templates

Open Admin, then Canned Responses, and write one per repeat câu hỏi.

Use placeholders for the requester name so replies still read like a person wrote them.

Đây là hình ảnh minh họa:

✓ Điểm kiểm tra: Typing the shortcut in a reply should pull the template in.

Freshservice Common Mistakes to Avoid

Mistake #1: Skipping the Self-Service Portal

Mistake #2: Approving Changes by Email

Mistake #3: Building 40 Service Catalog Items First

Freshservice Troubleshooting

Problem: Emails Are Not Becoming Tickets

Gây ra: Forwarding from your old inbox was never verified.

Sửa chữa: Reopen Admin, then Email Settings, and resend the verification. Check spam filters block nothing from the domain.

Problem: Tickets Land With the Wrong Agent

Gây ra: Two automation rules match the same ticket and fight each other.

Sửa chữa: Open Workflow Automator and reorder the rules. The first match wins, so put narrow conditions above broad ones.

Problem: Discovery Misses Half Your Assets

Gây ra: The agent never installed on remote machines, or a firewall blocks the scan range.

Sửa chữa: Push the agent through your deployment tool and confirm the scan covers every subnet.

📌 Ghi chú: If none of these fix your issue, contact Freshservice support.
