Different templates can be configured per department to match each brand&#8217;s communication style.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-section\">\n<h2>Controlling Notification Frequency<\/h2>\n<p>Over-notification is a common problem that causes alert fatigue. Zoho Desk allows granular control over which events trigger notifications and for which ticket types or departments. This ensures agents and managers receive only relevant, actionable alerts.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-example-box\"><strong>Example:<\/strong> A logistics company configures notification rules: customers receive an acknowledgement when a ticket is created, an update when status changes, and a satisfaction survey when the ticket is closed. Agents receive mobile push notifications for Urgent tickets only.<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-related-pills\"><a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/sla-escalation-zoho-desk\/\" class=\"gt-related-pill sp-content-link\">SLA Escalation<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/escalation-rule-zoho-desk\/\" class=\"gt-related-pill sp-content-link\">Escalation Rule<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/email-template-zoho-desk\/\" class=\"gt-related-pill sp-content-link\">Email Template (Desk)<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/workflow-zoho-desk\/\" class=\"gt-related-pill sp-content-link\">Workflow (Desk)<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-faq-item\"><strong>What is a Notification Rule in Zoho Desk?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A notification rule defines when automated emails or in-app alerts are sent to customers, agents, or managers based on ticket events.
