Overview of the Ticket Details view in Qminder: what it includes, how to use it, and where to access it.
Visitor Ticket Overview
The Ticket Details view shows everything related to a visitor’s ticket - whether they just checked in, are currently being served, or have already completed their visit.
⚠️ We are working on fully unifying functionalities and views for Ticket Details from various access points.
How do I open the Ticket details?
You can access Ticket Details from three main areas in Qminder:
-

What’s inside the ticket?
Once opened, the ticket is divided into two main sections:
-
Ticket fields on the left - all the editable information and service-related data.
-
Activity & messages on the right - a timeline showing everything that happened with this ticket.
Together, these give you a complete picture of the visitor’s request, communication, and service history.
1. Ticket fields
This section displays the core information about the visitor and their request.
🔄 Most fields are editable while the ticket is open; some fields will be editable for completed tickets. Some fields may be prefilled for an open ticket based on the visitor’s check-in or appointment.
Example of an open ticket (via Service view):
Example of a completed ticket (via Visitor history):
What’s included in ticket fields:
-
Name & Contact Info - First name, last name, phone number, email (optional)
-
Language – Helps you serve visitors in their preferred language
-
Service Line – The current service the visitor is assigned to
-
Custom fields – additional info like “What documents do you have ready?” or open-text responses that you can configure via Custom Input Fields
-
Labels – Internal tags to track or group visitors (optional). Learn How to add and manage Labels
Service actions (like marking as served or forwarding) are only available in the Service View.
2. Activity & messages
This section tracks everything that has happened with the ticket - from check-in to service completion - in real time.
Example of an open ticket (via Service view):
Example of a completed ticket (via Visitor history):
What’s included:
- Filters – Toggle between different event types (Visit activities, Text messages, Field activity)
NB! Currently available under Overview and Visitor History -
Timeline of events – Every step is logged with a timestamp. For example, the Field activity filter tracks changes made to the various input fields.
- Visit activities that reflect service actions – Calls, forwards, assignments, no-shows, and service completions
-
Text messages that showcase automated & manual messages – See what messages were sent, by whom, and whether they were delivered.
💬 You can also send a custom SMS reply directly from this view using the message box at the bottom.
The activity log keeps everyone on the same page — ideal for handoffs or follow-up.
3. Repeated visits: switch between past tickets
If the same visitor has prior visits (a returning visitor’s phone and/or email should match previous entries), use the date dropdown at the top to flip between tickets. The most recent visit is shown by default.
NB! Currently available under Overview and Visitor History!
This lets you:
-
Quickly switch between current and previous visits
-
Review past ticket details (what was said, done, or answered before)
-
Compare visit history in one place, without navigating away
Tip: This is especially helpful for long-term casework, VIP clients, or resolving issues from past interactions.
