2636373 - Email Subject is Not Changed When an Email Template is Selected

When replying to a Customer Ticket, or using a template in a Sales Document, the selection of an Email Template changes the body of the message, but has no effect on the Email's subject.

SAP Cloud for Customer

The following is an example using the Ticket BO. The same is true for other objects, such as Opportunities. 

1. Go to the Service work center.
2. Select the Tickets view.
3. Open Ticket ABC (ABC represents the Ticket ID).
4. Select the Reply button.
5. Select the Template hyperlink underneath the text field.
6. Select Template XYZ (XYZ represents the template name, which has an e-mail body and a subject maintained).
7. Select the OK button.

Only the text in the body of the message is added, the subject is not changed.

The Template's Subject field is only relevant when the template is used for a notification.

When the template is used to populate a response within a ticket, or to create an e-mail from a sales object such as an opportunity, the template subject is ignored.

The subject of the response or the object e-mail is already defaulted to the subject of the ticket plus the Ticket ID (for threading purposes) or with the object name (e.g. opportunity name).
