Review and Approve Email Drafts in the Salesforce Classic Case Feed

Depending on how your administrator has set up draft emails and approval processes for your organization, you need to review and approve messages written by the support reps you oversee before those messages are sent to customers.

Inclusion in an email approval process

When a support rep submits a message for approval, you receive an email notification with a link to the case that includes the message. A notice appears at the top of the publisher when you click Email. Click View email to go to the message detail page. On that page:

  • Click Unlock Record to make the message editable.
  • Click Delete if you want to discard the draft.
  • Click Approve/Reject in the Approval History related list to approve or reject the message.
  • Click Reassign to assign the approval to another supervisor.

If you approve the message, it’s sent to the customer. If you reject it, you have the option of writing a note explaining why. This note appears above the publisher on the case page when the support rep clicks Email, along with a notice that the draft has been rejected.
