The HR Help Desk

Employees ask HR questions in a personal Teams chat with AB Talent and get an answer from their own record and your company handbook, with sources, or the question goes to HR. What it can read, what HR sees, and how to set up the handbook safely.

Using AB in Microsoft 365 Copilot

AB Projects, AB Sales and AB Support each come with an agent for Microsoft 365 Copilot. How to open one, what to ask, why every change asks you to confirm first, and what to do when an agent seems to be missing something.

Task Dependencies: Blocked By and Blocks

How task dependencies work in AB Projects: add predecessors from the task that is waiting, read the automatic Blocks mirror, understand why an unmet predecessor warns rather than blocks, and how an AI assistant can set dependencies over MCP.

Working the Ticket Queue

How to scan, filter, and work the AB Support ticket queue: new tickets appearing on their own, the inbox row signals, compact rows, long queues, quick filters and sort, saved filters, keyboard triage, Next ticket after resolving, and bulk actions.

Your Customer Store

Everyone who contacts your AB Support desk becomes a customer record, matched by email or phone number depending on the channel, so returning people bring their history. When one person arrives as two records, an agent can merge them. It's AB Support's own store, separate from the AB Sales CRM.

The AB Support Dashboard

A desk opens on an interactive dashboard — in Teams or the web app. Its metric tiles are clickable and open the ticket list filtered to exactly those tickets. Which tiles click through, which don't, and how to read the numbers.

Knowledge Sources: How the AI Answers

The AI answers customers directly from the knowledge sources you point it at — this desk's own knowledge base, another workspace's wiki, or your own public help center — and cites them. It finds articles by meaning, so customers can ask in any language and still be answered from what you wrote.

AB Support Settings

Two things are called settings in AB Support: your personal settings (language, timezone, ticket digest) and a desk's admin-only settings (its name and icon, members, channels, statuses, knowledge sources, and its desk ID), reached from the gear inside the desk.

AB Sales Troubleshooting

Answers to the most common AB Sales questions — an empty Contacts tab, being unable to add leads, missing workspaces, email that won't send, sample data, and sign-in issues.

Agents: CRM Automation

The Agent is the automation engine that finds missing websites, extracts contact emails, sends your campaign emails, and drafts AI replies when leads respond — on a 5-minute timer, with strict verification, human review, and daily caps. This article covers each stage, how to pause, and how to opt out a single lead.

Leads: Capturing and Qualifying Prospects

A Lead is a prospect you haven't yet established a relationship with. This article covers the status pipeline (New, Information filled, Contacted, Qualified, Disqualified), how the AI Get URL button works, and how leads get created — typed in, imported from CSV, or sent from your own website form or API.

Exporting and Accessing Project Data

Installing the AB Projects Teams App

How to install AB Projects in Microsoft Teams: add the app from the Teams app store or Microsoft Marketplace, then add the channel tab to link a channel to a project — with automatic Microsoft 365 sign-in, project types, the included bot, and licensing basics.

Role-Based Access Control

The four project roles in AB Projects — Owner, Admin, Member, and Viewer — what each can do, how roles are changed, the guardrails around ownership and the last Admin, and how the read-only Viewer role differs from having no license seat.
