It’s the hidden feature of CRM i.e. Translations that helps in controlling the text that is set/used in the responses of email screens. There are basically three important translations which are the email’s subject, plain text body and HTML body.

Reply text

  • Caption Family: Email
  • Caption Code: replysubjtempl
  • Caption Family: Email
  • Caption Code: replytemplate
  • Caption Family: Email
  • Caption Code: replytemplatehtml

Forward text

  • Caption Family: Email
  • Caption Code: forwardsubjtempl
  • Caption Family: Email
  • Caption Code: forwardtemplate
  • Caption Family: Email
  • Caption Code: forwardtemplatehtml

These translations can be edited to allow the captions used to be changed according to business needs.
