AUTOMATION
Automation is a system-wide rule engine: pick a trigger (a deal changes stage, a Help Desk ticket is created or breaches its SLA), add conditions, and choose the actions — send an email, assign a user, add a note, notify someone or create an invoice. Every run is logged, including the runs that were skipped and why.

Rules with a memory
A won deal drafts its invoice, an urgent ticket finds its owner, a breached SLA reaches a manager — and every run, including the ones that were skipped, is written to a log the team can read.
Inside Automation
CRM Deals and Help Desk events are wired in today, and the engine is built so other modules register their own triggers as they are connected.
Send email, assign user, add note, notify user and create invoice — each reusing the platform's existing function, not a parallel copy.
Every execution attempt is recorded, including skipped runs with the reason, so you can see exactly why a rule did or did not fire.
Who can manage rules and who can read the log is set in Users → Modules & Permissions, with conservative defaults because rules can send email and create invoices.
Triggers are available for CRM Deals and Help Desk today; further source modules are added as they are wired in.
The rest of the platform
Automation isn't a silo — it shares clients, jobs and order numbers with the rest of ScaleBespoke.
