Adding and submitting a Ticket for an Account
It is not uncommon for agents to raise a support ticket for an account directly. For example, when a customer calls up from ABC Corp, it is not necessary that a contact in their name should exist. In this situation, the agent will search for the account ABC Corp and if it exists, will add a ticket for it. When the agent enters the contact's detail in the ticket, it will add a new contact and will be associated with the account thereafter.
To add a ticket for an account
- In Zoho Desk, navigate to the Customers module.
- Click Accounts on the bottom of the left menu.

- On the Search Results page, open the account to view its details.

To submit a ticket
