Hi, we recently have a joint customer account in FreshDesk who now want to go their separate ways. Even though the mobile number has been deleted from the contact to create a new account for the other customer, any calls and text are still creating and logging under the previous joint account. We’re aware we can completely delete the contacts to start from scratch but we don’t want to loose previous tickets/communications with the customers. Is there a possibility to have a function allowing us to unmerge customers or tickets please?

Hi @Sarah H 

 

Greetings from Freshworks community! 

 

In Freshdesk, currently we do not have any option to un merge tickets or Contacts. Merging is an irreversible action. That is the reason this warning message will be shown while merging contacts:

 

 

However kindly note that, once you merge two contacts. The tickets then created will be under the Primary contact which was chosen while merging. You can then delete the Secondary contact email from the list and create as a new contact, since there will be no association with tickets for that contact. 

 

I hope this clarifies.


Hi @Sarah H,
