This role is assignable to an read only user. In other words, no extra costs for a service agent.
A service agent is someone who receives a task to solve in a ticket.
When having completed the task the service agent can submit his/her work for approval by the dispatcher (dispatcher being the person assigning the ticket to the service agent)
To activate a user as a service agent you will either need to create a new user and assign it access level Read only or add the role to an existing read only.
Be aware that you can only make a new user a read only user, it is not possible to change an agent to an read only type.
Open SmartDialog settings, click users and click Add new.
The add new user window appears. Click the Access list where it says Agent.
Select Read Only
Next you will need to assign a role to the Read only user. Click the read only user roles
Select Service Agent
Click save to commit the changes and close the window.
You have now created a new Service agent. He will receive an email telling him to create a password to login to SmartDialog.
You can now assign a ticket to the Service Agent as you normally would assign a ticket to any other agent.
This is how a ticket that is assigned to a service agent looks in the ticket overview.
The yellowish background and this icon tells you that the ticket is assigned to a service agent and the service agent has not yet completed his/her task.
When the service agent has completed his/her task the ticket in ticket overview will look like this
The greenish background and this icontells you that the ticket is assigned to a service agent and the service agent has completed his/her task.

Click the tab to display the checklist. Clicking a task will set it as complete.
Making changes to a checklist will require you to save ticket changes.
