Service Manager

If Service Manager is also installed on your instance, you will see two additional options when viewing emails.

  • Raise Request - Use this option to manually raise a new request from the email. This will match a user with the from email address, against the email address in the users profile, and raise a new request against them. You will be guided through progressive capture forms to raise the request.
  • Apply to Request - Use this option to manually apply the email as an update to an existing request. This will match the user with the from email address and the users profile and show a list of the users requests to add the request too.
