How do I edit the Freshdesk ticket Summary field if another agent originally entered it? One of my colleagues is away this week, so I took over his ticket and set myself as the Agent. However, when I went to update the Summary that my colleague had originally entered, the Edit button was invisible. That makes no sense. I’m now the agent on the ticket. I should be allowed to edit the Summary. Please tell me how to do it, or please fix it if this is a bug. This is a very common use case.
Hi
Welcome to Freshworks Community :)
The edit button on the summary feature would still be visible even if the ticket was assigned to a new agent from the previous agent.
The only scenario where the edit option won't be available is when the Summary added agent is deleted from the system. Could you please confirm if the Summary added agent is active in the system or a deleted user? Or see if you are provided with any custom role where the ability to edit other agent's notes is not provided
To know more about the custom role. Kindly refer to the below article:

I hope this helps!

You can disregard this. Our excellent Freshdesk Administrator resolved this. Apparently, there is some sort of setting to allow it. Cheers! We are so happy now.
