Step 4
- Add New Support Staff
The next step is to add new staff members. Staff are the personnel who will respond to support tickets from end-users.
- You can add staff in the Comodo One (C1) portal at https://one.comodo.com/app/login:
- Click 'Management' > 'Staff' > '+ New Staff' in the Comodo One interface.
- Staff created in C1 are available in Service Desk and all other C1 products (Endpoint Manager, Quote Manager etc).
- Staff created in C1 are assigned to the 'default department' in Service Desk. You can assign staff to different departments as required.
- There are two types of roles - Service Desk roles and Comodo One roles.
- Staff will initially be given the same role in Service Desk as they have in C1.
- You can change this role in Service Desk at any time.
- The role you assign to them in Service Desk will not affect their role in C1.
- Click 'Management' > 'Staff' > '+ New Staff' in the Comodo One interface to get started:
