Introduction

Welcome to this guide. We'll explain how to use the "Tickets" tab in the dashboard, including a definition of "Ticket". Our aim is to ensure a smooth experience for you and your tenants. This guide will help both new and seasoned users navigate the "Tickets" feature confidently.

Before getting started

Here are some frequently asked questions and their answers to ensure a smooth and efficient process.

What is a Ticket in Truckbays?

A ticket is a fee that can be issued to any customer who violates one of the predetermined rules in your lot.

What happens if the customer refuses to comply?

If the Ticket is not resolved by the due date the customer will be charged automatically to their payment method on file.

What does “Resolving” a Ticket do?

When a ticket is marked as "Resolved," it means that the person is no longer in violation and will not be charged for the amount. It's important to note that a customer will not be removed from the "Tickets" tab; the ticket status will simply change to "Resolved".

What are the different types of status that a Ticket can have?

The status of a ticket can be "Resolved", indicating the issue is no longer applicable, "Pending", which means the customer is in violation and will be charged if the issue is not resolved by the due date, or "Unsuccessful", indicating the issue was not resolved by the due date and the tenant was charged.

How will the customer know I have assigned him a Ticket?

The customer will receive notifications via SMS, Email, and Push Notifications indicating that a ticket has been assigned to them. They will be able to view the details you provided on the ticket and can contact you to resolve the issue.
💡
Note: Assigning a ticket to the customer will not automatically remove gate access or mark their bay as a violation. These actions must be performed manually.
