Send as Email, Rich Text Editor features are now supported in Zoho Desk Android app!

Hello All!


 

We are delighted to announce about the new feature 'Send as email' in the Zoho Desk Android app (v2.3.11). 


 

Agents can send outbound emails to new or existing contacts at the time of ticket creation. You can also convert the emails into tickets and track their progress. Furthermore, such contacts do not receive the new ticket notification. 


 

This feature will be available in the mobile app if it is enabled on the desktop site (desk.zoho.com). You can enable this feature on the desktop site by following the steps mentioned below: 


  1. Click the Setup icon (  ) in the top menu.
  2. Click General Settings under the Customization menu.
  3. Turn on the Send as Email option on the General Setting page. 

You can send emails to customers using this option while creating a ticket in the app. 


1. Go to Add ticket page in the app. 
2. Enter the details of the contact. 
3. Click the ellipsis icon at the top. 
4. Select 'Send as Email' option, to send outbound emails to the customers. 

Here is a screenshot attached below for your better understanding: 



 

Note: Agents only with the Send Emails and Ticket Creation permission can send outbound emails.


We have also brought in support for 'Rich Text Editor' in the mobile app using which you can enhance the texts entered in the Description field. 

 

For instance, you can make the text as Bold, Italics, Underline and much more, as depicted in the screenshot below: 






Do check out the features and share your feedback in the comments section! 

 

Sincerely, 
Sri Priya

                                                                                                                ユーザーの皆さま、こんにちは。コミュニティチームの藤澤です。 今回は「Zoho CRM アップデート情報」の中から、新機能のやりとり要約機能をご紹介します。 Zoho CRMのやりとりの要約は、Ziaが生成する機能で、データに関連付けられた最近のやりとりを簡潔にまとめて提供します。 メール、通話、ミーティング、メモなどを1つの明確な要約にまとめ、重要なポイント、過去の話し合いの要点、結果、次のステップを表示することで、日常的な課題に対処します。 Ziaの強みは、単なる要約にとどまらず、内容の解釈も行える点です。やりとりの要約では、顧客との会話に潜む遅延、フォローアップ漏れ、約束、期限、感情、意図を特定します。
