Question
How do we reopen a closed ticket when the ticket contact replies to it?
โ
Answer
When a ticket is marked completed, you can no longer edit it unless you reopen it.
Re-opening a ticket can be done in two ways in the UI.
โ
1. Re-open manually-
Navigate to Service Desk > Tickets, Open a completed ticket, and hit re-open.
2. Configure a workflow to do this for you.
Create a new workflow and use the parameters as follows:
Activity Added By: Anyone/Clients
Conditions tab - Status: "IN" - "Closed or Completed" (The field used for closure in your Service desk settings)
Updates tab - Change status to New or whatever status you would like the re-opened ticket to use.
Notification - You can specify what queues or who will be receiving this re-open notification via the Notifications tab.
