Specially prepared templates

Some categories being selected automatically fill in the Title field and the Message's box with an appropriate text. For example, if you select the Access Information request category, the Title will be changed to Access information and the message will be filled with the premade template, where you only need to select the necessary type of access. This template is helpful in 99% of cases, but if your request belongs to the other 1%, you can edit the message as you need. dashboard create ticket appropriate fields
