Hello,

My manager receives requests that are not assigned to anyone. However, he would like to assign them viam e-mail to a particular admin.

I am trying to use the escalation rule to accomplish this. Is their a better method of doing this? Or is this a future feature request.

Regards,
Paul

Is he receiving these unassigned requests from incoming emails?

Sorry if I was unclear. I meant where are the unassigned requests coming from? Are they coming from incoming emails? or categories that aren't routed?

The requests normally arrive via e-mail by our users. If they are not automatically re-routed by our rules, then our manager gets the e-mail showing the ticked not assigned to anyone of us.

Dear pdlp,

Why not to configure categories in the email integration and to rout them to a specific admin?

Hello,

Routing to admin based on rules can work for some tickets. However, our manager would like the freedom to choose admins to assign tickets when he receives them either by an e-mail or by sending an e-mail to the helpdesk and adding the name of the admin to assign it to.

My manager further clarified the request.

He would like to use special fields in the body of the email to define the following:

Assigned To:
Urgency:
Priority:
Due Date:

He suggested modifying a form in Outlook and sending it to the helpdesk email account which in turn would parse the body of the email for the keywords and fill out the ticket accordingly.

If this is not currently possible, please send it to the feature request forum.

Thanks,
Paul
