Scenarios where the email parser would create known vs. unknown tickets

Question

How do unknown tickets get created vs. known tickets in BMS?

Answer

Below is a summary of scenarios as to when the parser will create known vs. unknown tickets: 

  1. email@support.com sends an email to the email parser:
    • email@support.com does not exist in BMS under CRM > Contacts.
    • This will result in an unknown ticket.
  2. email@support.com sends an email to the email parser:
    • email@support.com does not exist in BMS under CRM > Contacts.
    • support.com is however defined as a valid domain name under CRM > Accounts.
    • This will result in a known ticket.
  3. email@support.com sends an email to the email parser:
    • email@support.com is a known contact in BMS
    • This will result in a known ticket.
  4. email@support.com sends an email to the email parser:
    • email@support.com is a known contact in BMS but it exists under two different CRM accounts.
    • This will result in an unknown ticket.
  5. email@support.com sends an email to the email parser:
    • email@support.com is a known contact in BMS > CRM > Account "Microsoft."
    • support.com is defined as a valid domain name in CRM > Account "Oracle."
    • This will result in an unknown ticket.
  6. email@support.com sends an email to the email parser:
    • email@support.com is a known contact in BMS.
    • email@support.com is defined as an employee in BMS.
    • This will result in a known ticket.
  7. email@support.com sends an email to the email parser:
    • email@support.com is defined only as an employee in BMS.
    • This will result in an unknown ticket.
