They update ticket progress from the field, allowing supervisors and customers to track status in real time without phone calls back to the office.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-section\">\n<h2>RADAR App for Field Supervisors<\/h2>\n<p>Supervisors managing field agents use the RADAR app to monitor ticket progress across the field team. They can reassign tickets if a field agent is delayed, prioritise urgent site visits, and track overall field team performance without being on site themselves.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-example-box\"><strong>Example:<\/strong> A commercial HVAC company&#8217;s 8 field technicians use the Zoho Desk mobile app to manage service tickets. When a technician completes a job, they update the ticket status, attach a photo of the completed work, and mark the ticket resolved. The customer receives an automatic closure notification.<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-related-pills\"><a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/agent-zoho-desk\/\" class=\"gt-related-pill sp-content-link\">Agent<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/radar-app-zoho-desk\/\" class=\"gt-related-pill sp-content-link\">RADAR App<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/ticket-zoho-desk\/\" class=\"gt-related-pill sp-content-link\">Ticket<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/agent-availability-zoho-desk\/\" class=\"gt-related-pill sp-content-link\">Agent Availability<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-faq-item\"><strong>What is a Field Agent in Zoho Desk?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A field agent is a mobile support professional who manages tickets via the Zoho Desk mobile app while working on-site at customer locations.
