Issue with "Send Email" from Quotes not loading Email Template data

Issue with "Send Email" from Quotes not loading Email Template data

Hi everyone,

I'm currently experiencing an issue when using the "Send Email" option from a Quote record in Zoho CRM.

What’s happening:

  • When I go to the Quotes module and select a record, then click Send Email, the attached file (Quote) correctly pulls in all the customer data.

  • However, when I try to select an Email Template, it does not populate any of the CRM merge fields (they appear blank or unfilled).

  • Additionally, the recipient’s email address is not automatically added, so I have to manually select the contact every time.

What I’m expecting:

  • The Email Template should automatically populate with the corresponding CRM data (like Name, Deal, etc.).

  • The recipient (Contact/Lead linked to the Quote) should be auto-filled in the "To" field when clicking Send Email from the Quote record.

Question:
Is this the expected behavior of the default "Send Email" action in Quotes, or is there a way to configure it so:

  1. Email templates properly load and populate data

  2. The recipient email is auto-filled based on the Quote record

Any guidance or best practices would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
