Splitting a Ticket

Splitting a Ticket

The split as new Ticket function in the tickets module allows you to split a customer ticket with two different inquiries into separate tickets. For instance, if your customer initially enquired about the purchase price and now wants to know the technical functions of your product, then you can create a new ticket from a reply using split as new Ticket function. This allows you to discuss sales-related questions in the original ticket and assign/transfer the technical-related questions to the appropriate department or agent. 

Note: The splitted ticktes will retain the customer's response.
