Request a Zendesk Account
If you need to request a second Zendesk account for another person in your organization. Follow these steps to do so:

In the Description field of the new ticket, your team member enters the following information about the new account: “Account request for {Full Name} with {email address}”.
After you receive ProcessMaker Support’s confirmation in the ticket, your Zendesk account to log on to the ProcessMaker Customer Support Portal is created. To log on, see Log On Using Credentials from a Mantis or Zendesk Account.
Locate Your ProcessMaker Support Tickets
Follow these steps to locate your ProcessMaker Support tickets:
-
Log on to the ProcessMaker Customer Support Portal. The main page displays.
-
Click the drop-down menu from your ProcessMaker Customer Support Portal username, and then select My activities.
The My activities page displays.
-
From the My activities page, view all the ProcessMaker Support tickets you have reported and the status of each.
Below is a description of each status and how each corresponds with the old Mantis ticketing system:
-
Open: The Open status represents an “acknowledge” status. In Mantis, this status was represented as an orange color, which means that the ProcessMaker Support agent is working on this ticket. In Zendesk, this status is represented as a light blue color.
The Open status also corresponds to the On-Hold status used in Mantis, and was represented as a yellow color. This status means that the ProcessMaker Support agent has engaged the ticket with other resources in ProcessMaker.
Awaiting Your Reply: The Awaiting Your Reply status represents a “feedback” status. In Mantis, this status was represented as a purple color, which means that the ProcessMaker Support agent is waiting for your feedback. In Zendesk, this status is represented as a yellow color.
Solved: The Solved status represents the “resolved” status. In Mantis, this status was represented as a green color, which means that the ProcessMaker Support agent solved the ticket. In Zendesk, this status is represented as a gray color.
Closed: The Closed status does not display because it is an automatic status set by Zendesk in solved tickets after a period of time.
