Record history and ticket interaction tab in contacts and accounts

Hello everyone!

We have improved the History tab to help users trace updates in the interaction activity logs of the Contacts and Accounts detail pages in the Customer Module.

This enhancement make it easier to get clear details about who made each update, when it occurred, and what exactly changed, which helps teams quickly understand the progression of a ticket, contact, or account.

The history tab displays:

1. Activity log in chronological order
2. Clear timeline of the changes and user details
3. Data can be filtered by agent name to find the exact changes made by an individual
   

The ticket interaction tab displays:

1. Timeline of every interaction related to tickets (replies, comments, ratings, etc.) with the account or contact
2. Transparent details about interactions related to the ticket across the support lifecycle
   

For more information on the history tab in contacts and accounts, kindly refer to the help document. This feature is available for users across all data centers.

• 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
