Create Ticket Templates - Zoho Desk Knowledgebase

Creating Ticket Templates

A ticket template is a set of predefined field values that can be applied to a specific support request. It simplifies ticket creation by pre-filling the values when you manually submit a ticket. The template can include values for standard fields and any custom fields you have. For example, you can create individual templates for the frequently-raised support issues. Also, the templates can be visible to end users and agents, or agents only. 

Note:
  • Only users with Profile permission for managing Email and Ticket Templates can access this feature.
  • Ticket templates are available only on Professional and Enterprise.
  • Ticket templates are layout specific. Enterprise edition users can create upto 20 layouts in a department. 

To create a ticket template
  1. Click the Setup icon  ) in the top bar.
  2. In the Setup Landing page, click Templates under Customization.
  3. Under Templates menu, click Ticket Templates.
  4. In the Template List page, select a department from the drop-down list.
  5. Click New Ticket Template in the upper right area.
  6. In the New Template page, do the following:
    • Specify the Name of the Ticket Template.
    • Check the Show to Contact in the Help Center option, if required.
    • Specify the Subject and a Description for the ticket.
    • Specify the ticket's Status and Owner.
      A ticket created using this template will be auto-assigned to the agent.
    • Enter the value for the other ticket properties.
  7. Click Save.
