Ovenbird for Freshdesk

The ticket stays in Freshdesk. Ovenbird reads it, finds where it is in your triage process, and tells the agent what comes next, then records the note. It never replies to the customer.

#48211: LP progress shows 83% for 40 users who completed it. What's next?

Ovenbird reads the record, its history and the thread around it, then applies your document.

Asks firstOne user or many?Which product version is the customer on?

NextTell the customer this is expected behaviour, and run "Recalculate progress". Items were added after completion; the fix in 4.12 doesn't apply to this customer's version.

“The most common cause of percentage mismatches is content being added to an LP after users have already completed it.”
