Reasons for Changing Ticket Requester

Why might agents need to change the ticket requester in Zendesk?

Agents might need to change the ticket requester in Zendesk when a support request is submitted on behalf of someone else. This ensures that the correct individual is associated with the ticket, allowing for accurate tracking and communication.

Changing the requester can help maintain data integrity and ensure that the right person receives updates and resolutions related to their support request. It's a useful feature for managing tickets more effectively in scenarios where the initial requester is not the intended recipient.
