We are excited to announce the [latest features update](https://www.bolddesk.com/product-updates/september-2023) in our September release! BoldDesk is dedicated to equipping you with the resources you need to consistently deliver exceptional customer service.

We are always pushing the boundaries to provide you with cutting-edge features and tools that guarantee efficiency and optimal performance, and this release is no different.

BoldDesk has been updated with the following features to enhance the customer support experience:

## 1\. Ticketing system features

The following updates have been implemented in the [ticketing system](https://www.bolddesk.com/help-desk-ticketing-system) to enhance the user experience and increase its efficiency and effectiveness:

### a. Add agent signature to ticket

This feature automatically embeds an agent’s signature when [replying to tickets](https://support.bolddesk.com/kb/article/169/how-to-reply-to-tickets-and-format-responses-in-bolddesk). Signatures can be set up either globally across the brand or individually for each agent.

### b. Print ticket capability

The print ticket feature allows users to generate physical copies of tickets for documentation purposes.

Tickets can be printed from either the customer or agent portal.

### c. Instant access to requester’s details in card view

This feature enables users to instantly access the details of a ticket requester in the card view by just hovering the cursor over the requester’s name.

### e. Create a child ticket from a parent ticket

Agents can connect tickets using the link option. To facilitate issue tracking, major incident tickets can serve as parent tickets, while minor incident tickets can function as child tickets.

The In Group operator has been added to the [advanced ticket filters](https://support.bolddesk.com/kb/article/274/advanced-filters-in-bolddesk-how-to-apply-and-save) page. This filter allows users to filter specific tickets from those assigned to a group.

For instance, when a manager applies the **Agent | In Group | Finance Department** filter, tickets assigned to any agents within the finance department group will be retrieved instead of just tickets specifically assigned to the finance department group.
