Description
A Ticket is closed by the requester from PortalTicket form or a resolved Ticket is auto-closed 3 days after its ‘Resolved Date’. Sometimes, requester replies to the closed Ticket and we need to notify them to open a new Ticket as the old Ticket has been closed.
This article has steps to configure a NITRO Workflow to notify the Ticket requester/sender on replying to a ticket that was previously closed.
Note: The steps explained below are in relation to the NITRO Helpdesk application.
