Turn requests from your "sales @ your company" address into a Sale, your emails from "support @ your company" address into Support Tickets and track them through Accelo, or a request from one of your clients keen to get the ball rolling directly into a Project.
With a click of a button, easily turn requests directly into sales, projects or tickets right inside of your Accelo Request Inbox.
Using this guide, you can:
Configure Requests for Conversion
Convert the shared emails you receive in the Request Inbox into to a new Sale, Ticket, or Project. When you convert, it auto-populates the details from the request to the work component so you don't have to re-enter any data.
Your account is configured to present conversion types to your default Sales, Ticket, and Project types.
If you've set up other Sale, Ticket, or Project types and would like to create new or edit existing Conversion options, you'll want to navigate to the Request Conversion settings page.
To add and edit conversion options:
-
Click on the Module Button in the top left of Accelo and choose Configuration.
-
Navigate to the Requests configuration and then to the Conversions section.
-
On the Request conversions page, you can to add new conversions by clicking the Add Conversion button, or edit existing Conversions by clicking on the Conversion Title.
-
Depending on which Object you choose (sale, ticket, or project) you'll be presented with some different conversion options.
