HI,

In a request, when I click on a new specific action button, I need to :

  • Send an email + attachment to the customer contact defined on the request.
  • Receive an email answer + attachement from the customer contact with the email address used to send it the first email

I need to have the email answer linked to request as attachment in order to track and trace all exchanges.

I assume that from a request, send/receive an email + attachment is possible, but

  • Could you expain : what settings is needed  to do that ?:
    ​​- How to set a specific email address to send / receive email
    - What settings to save the answer email as attachment on the request ?

Thanks for your help

Regards

anthony thobie

Hi @Kalpani Dissanayake 

Ok thanks for the first part of the question : To send email + attachment
 

The second part is to receive email linked to specific object of FSM (request)

Then the recipient (customer contact) of the email sent will make an answer by email and we have to add this email answer + attachment to the request. The recipient will use the email address used to send the first email, to make his answer.
Could you please describe how to listen email / to add email in a request  in FSM ? 

To give you a better description with an example :
1/ Email sent to the customer:  Request_ID XXX / From email.address@xxx.com / To customer.contact@email.com  / Attachment ZZZ
2/ Email received form the customer  : Request_ID XXX / From  customer.contact@email.com  / To email.address@xxx.com / Attachment ZZZ with  comment/signature of the customer


For the step 2 : we have to add the email + attachment to the Request_ID XXX

Thanks and Regards
