Schedule a ticket

You can schedule tickets to pop up at a later date using Atera's new AI ticket scheduler. Scheduled tickets will remain in draft and won’t go live or count towards your SLA, until their scheduled times. They can also be recurring and can be used for managing future support tasks and technician schedules. Scheduled tickets can be edited or deleted at any time.

1. From Tickets (on the sidebar), click New ticket.
