Creating a new ticket from existing conversation

Hello,

 

A customer replied to an exisitng ticket with a new question that I would prefer to have as a separate ticket with its own attributes. But I only realized that now.

Is there a way to break off the latest group of messages and make them an independent ticket?

Hey David,

I was able to track down a 3rd party integration that could accomplish what you're looking for: Split n Close.

There isn't a way to accomplish this natively but hopefully the above will help.

Cheers!

Split n Close is not free. 

I consider this to be basic functionality that ought to be built into the product. It is not at all uncommon for a customer to start talking about a different issue in the same email thread you already have going. Sometimes they've sent two or three emails, with images, attachments, etc, before you have a chance to catch it and get a new ticket going for the new issue. In this situation, it is now quite difficult to get a new ticket created to track the issue and have it contain all of the relevant information in an easy-to-use way. 

I'd like to see an option to "split" a ticket where you can select the ticket updates that should move to the new ticket (since there might be several).
