I would like the ability to create a ticket manually, or automatically, when composing a new email from scratch in the conversations inbox.
I already have automated ticket creation active for incoming emails. But in this instance, I would like to be able to create tickets for outgoing emails.
Use case: A contact contacts us by phone, and then we follow up with an email after we hang up, and want to create a ticket at the same time.
When testing, I found that if I compose an email and don't create a ticket. A ticket will be created when the customer replies to it. But this is not ideal since depending on the nature of the ticket, the contact may not reply in a day or two. For reporting, we need the ticket to be created as soon as possible.
The only workaround I can think of, is to compose an email, go to the "sent" view in the inbox, open the email, and manually create a ticket from the right sidebar. Which is a non-user friendly way of doing it.
