How to Turn Every WhatsApp Conversation Into a Ticket

To turn WhatsApp conversations into tickets, each incoming message creates a card in the process linked to that number. The conversation stops being a chat thread and becomes a record with status, history, and an owner.

What gets lost in a plain WhatsApp inbox

A messaging inbox has no concept of state, which is the single thing support depends on.

No status: everything looks equally open
No owner: nobody is accountable for a specific conversation
No history once the thread scrolls out of reach
No reporting on volume, response time, or resolution

The lifecycle of a conversation card

Stage	What it means
New conversation	A message arrived and a card was created
In progress	Someone is handling it
Closed	Resolved; a new message starts a fresh card
Archived	Kept for history, out of the active view

How to configure it in Jestor

Link the WhatsApp number in Jestor to the table holding the process.
Let each new message create a card automatically in that process.
Use the auto-filled fields: the contact's phone and their name as the card title.
Let images and files exchanged in the chat feed the attachments field automatically.
Configure the status logic so closed conversations start a new card on the next message.

Why choose Jestor for WhatsApp ticketing?

In Jestor, one number is linked to one table, which is what keeps sales conversations out of the support pipeline. A company with several processes simply uses several numbers.

Because every conversation is a record, the same tools that work elsewhere apply here: filters, phases, permissions, automations, and dashboards.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does a closed conversation reopen?

No. A new message creates a new card. See jestor.com.

Are attachments saved?

Yes, images and files from the chat feed the attachments field.

Can one number serve several processes?

No — one number per table. Use multiple numbers for multiple processes.
