Automated FatCow Overdue Ticket Alerts

Every morning, WebRun opens the FatCow support portal, checks every open ticket for time since the last reply, creates a Trello card naming the ticket and how long it has waited for anything over 24 hours, and sends the ticket owner a WhatsApp ping so it gets picked up the same day.

In short

How do I stop FatCow support tickets from going overdue?

Every morning, WebRun checks your FatCow support tickets for anything open more than 24 hours without a reply. It creates a Trello card naming the ticket and how long it has waited, and sends the ticket owner a WhatsApp ping, so an overdue ticket gets picked up the same day instead of sitting a week.

  • An overdue ticket gets a nudge within a day instead of sitting a week
  • Every ticket owner knows exactly which of their tickets is waiting
  • A Trello card gives the team a running view of open support work

Good to know

Questions, answered

Does it reply to the support ticket itself?

No. WebRun only reads ticket age and nudges the owner. Replying to FatCow support always stays a step a person takes.

How is an overdue ticket defined?

Any open ticket with no reply for more than 24 hours. You can adjust that window if your team works to a tighter or looser response target.

What happens once someone replies to the ticket?

The next run will no longer find it overdue, since it reads the live time since last reply each time rather than remembering the old card.

Put this on autopilot.
