Splitting a Customer’s Reply to a New Ticket

1 min read
Updated:

Sometimes, a customer’s reply may include multiple queries that can be addressed separately or independently. In this case, agents may use the Split Ticket feature to quickly create a new ticket from the reply. This option is only available in the replies added by the requester or any other contact. Agent replies and notes cannot be split into a new ticket.

Check out the video explaining this feature
