For a quick overview of this feature, see How to use Email Action Templates

 

Email Action Templates allow Admins and Super Admins to add email templates, which can then be accessed from within an open ticket in Revelation.

 

This feature is not available for Core users.

 

 

From the main area of the tab, you will be able to do the following:

Add Email Action Template

To add a new template, click on the New button on the right side of the screen; the following form will appear:

 

 

Name: Give the template a name. This will be visible in the drop down when creating an email from within a ticket.

Default:If this box is checked, the email template will be the default in the drop down from within the ticket. You will see aDin a blue circle on the listing page if the email is the default.

Subject: Provide a subject. This will be the subject line of the emails sent. The user will be allowed to change the subject line, or amend it as needed.

Draft/Published:Select if the email is still in the Draft phase and will not appear on the drop down, or if you wish to Publish it so the email will be on the drop down in the ticket.

Body: At the top, you will be able to select the font, add a table, do a search-and-replace, etc. The larger box is for the message itself. There is a 6,000 character limit.

Data Fields: Similar to Custom Email Notifications, Data Fields can be used to add customizations to your templates. Drag and drop the appropriate phrase to the email as needed.

Bill/Non-Bill: Automatically adds the noted time to the ticket as billable or non-billable time.

Append user signature: If your staff have signatures set up in the system, checking this box will append the signature to the email.

Auto-Fill CC Names: If Capture CC Email Addresses is checked in the Email Parser, and this option is checked, any entries in the CC field will be automatically added. These can be edited as needed.

Visible by: Allows you to select if the template is visible by Access Level or by Team. i.e. If someone is a Manager, but not on the Back Office team, they will not see templates for the Back Office team.
