Support with working on helpdesk

Hi Guys,

I am kind of stuck in a situation/ loop at the moment. I need support where I am currently working in a microsoft environment that allows teams but I work on the helpdesk. Of course I am very used to being productive with my work so sometimes I have leaned to communicating with users through teams rather than keeping the whole work on the ticket. I am not sure why I struggle as this sounds really dumb as I am typing it out but I can struggle when someone messages me and they are literally there where I can get them to finish the job.

Users don't really update tickets/ responsive when you go through the helpdesk mainly because they have to check their emails. I have thought about just not opening teams but this is impossible because our department also communicate through teams in groups to also sort out communication and get support in jobs.

has anyone got any tips to get round this to stop communicating on teams so that it is only on the ticket system? I keep getting pulled up on it because I can just sometimes forget in the moment while I am working and don't mean it. (Please don't just say ignore it, I know I should be able to do that but it is not exactly that straight foward)
