re-open ticket on comment

Archived Lee R. ● ago

In Admin > Help Desk there is an option to 're-open on comment'. If set to No, the ticket remains closed but the customers comment is added to the closed ticket.

Is there a way to set a period of time for this feature to work or skip. For example, during the current work week, or say 7 business days, I would like the customer to be able to respond to a ticket and if under 7 days then re-open the ticket and notify the ticket owner. If the customer responds after 7 days then I would like the system to open a new ticket but reference the old ticket. This is how other systems work so you can track a new customer request but link to the old details.

Thanks for the consideration

Hello Lee,

Thank you for the idea. We'll review it during next few weeks.

Stas, do we now have a way to define the number of days that a ticket can be re-opened once marked completed? It would be great to have the ability to set this to a set number of days or within the current work week/month. Thanks

Hi Lee,

You can set number of days ticket can be completed once agent replied to user using Scheduled Events in triggers - it doesn't matter if it was reopened or created, you just define if reply was from support agent or user in conditions
