Zoho Desk & Tasks

Zoho Desk & Tasks

Hi,

I'd like to be able to create a set of tasks each time a customer request comes in, as I understand it, currently each would need to be create manually. Project is too much of an overhead for what we want to use.

Effectively in various use cases we want to be able to import a set number of tasks that then get customised as appropriate. 

Any suggestions welcome.

    • Using Agent Email Address as From Address

      Currently, while replying to a ticket, it is possible for agents to choose their own email addresses as 'from' addresses. Although we built this just for that little extra flexibility, in hindsight, it hasn't figured much in conventional usage.  Almost all businesses prefer that responses to their customers' tickets be sent from the common support/service email address and NOT from those of individual agents. During personal interactions at events, some of you have even made passing mentions about

    • Merge Items

      Is there a work around for merging items? We currently have three names for one item, all have had a transaction associated so there is no deleting (just deactivating, which doesn't really help. It still appears so people are continuing to use it). I also can't assign inventory tracking to items used in past transactions, which I don't understand, this is an important feature moving forward.. It would be nice to merge into one item and be able to track inventory. Let me know if this is possible.
