Help Desk
The Help Desk is an internal support ticketing system for your practice. Staff can create tickets to track and resolve client issues, escalate problems, and maintain a record of all support interactions.
The Help Desk is available on Team tier and above. :::
Overview
The Help Desk provides a centralised view of all support tickets across your practice. It is designed for internal staff use -- practitioners, managers, and supervisors create and manage tickets on behalf of clients.
Creating a Ticket
- Navigate to Practice > Help Desk in the sidebar
- Click New Ticket
- Fill in the ticket details:
- Client -- select the client this ticket relates to
- Subject -- brief summary of the issue
- Description -- detailed description of the problem
- Category -- General, Appointments, Billing, Technical, Documents, Telehealth, or Privacy
- Priority -- Low, Medium, High, or Urgent
- Click Create Ticket
Managing Tickets

Filtering
Use the filter tabs to view tickets by status:
- All -- every ticket

Escalation
Tickets can be escalated to the Praxi ops team if they require platform-level support. Escalated tickets display an "Escalated" badge and are linked to the ops portal for tracking.

Who can use the Help Desk
All staff members — including practitioners, receptionists, and interns — can create and update tickets for their own clients and view those tickets. Practice owners and practice managers can assign tickets to other staff members, triage the full ticket queue, and escalate tickets to the Praxi ops team when platform-level support is needed.
