Email Engagement on Quote defaults to not Follow

(0) ShareShare

Hello,

We have noticed something strange in regard to Email Engagement.  I do have the setting turned on in Sales Insights Settings:

It works great for emails sent from all areas (leads, opportunities, etc) in that those emails are :"followed" by default.   However, when sending an email from a quote, it defaults to not follow.

We build a quote, click "export to pdf" in the ribbon, choose "email" - the email screen comes up and on the right side we see:

Obviously, we can toggle it by clicking "follow" but this just adds another step and can often be forgotten.

Does anyone has any idea why this is and how to make it so that it is set to follow by default.  A search for any answers comes up with nothing about this.

Thanks!

    Hi,

    Yes, I also think your concerns are valid.

    You can create a new idea through the below URL, then ask your colleagues to raise up the votes.  

    Ideas (dynamics.com) 

    Our product team has direct visibility of these ideas and they will implement it on the basis of the highest number of votes received.

    Thank you!  I kind of figured that it might be by design, but it doesn't seem logical as in our business when we send a quote to a potential customer, it's fairly important to see if they opened it, etc.

    Hi,

    It is by designed.

    When you choose the export to pdf, an email with an attachment will be generated.

    At this point the email will not follow this attachment by default and will need to be followed manually.
