I have seen this discussed before and wanted to check if there was any luck on setting a status of "waiting for customer" and have it send X number of emails to the email recipients on the ticket (one per day), saying "We haven't heard from you, please reply within Y days or else we will consider this issue resolved. You can reply back at any time to reopen the ticket".

You can configure Alerts to Customers settings to automatically email the customer when the Ticket status changes to 'Waiting for Customer' and customize an Email Template with relevant content to be used for such alerts.
As for sending additional "follow-up" emails - currently there is no such option. We have this request on our list and will add your comments. Hope this helps. |

Thank you for posting this. Closing tickets requires such tickets pass different validations that only a user can fix - for example - that the ticket being closed has charges logged under it, that there aren't any open pending appointments, etc. Some people also only close tickets after they got invoiced. In any case, we will review this again. Thanks!

"Maybe add an additional status like 'Waiting on Client' and have it allow us to set an auto close time frame. We could even have an automated email send out stating that the ticket will close in x days if we dont hear a response."
This is similar to what we need. Not necessarily have the ticket auto close (billing concerns) but to auto change the status to pending billing or anything other than open. |

In regards to "You can configure Alerts to Customers settings to automatically email the customer when the Ticket status changes to 'Waiting for Customer' and customize an Email Template with relevant content to be used for such alerts. "
How does one program this specifically to alert on the status - "Waiting on Customer". That is, can the flag be set to a specific status, or is it more generic and will trigger on all status changes? E.g . <CMTLBLDATA_FLDTKTSTATUS> =??? Is there a programming guide? |

Thank you for posting this.
Yes, you can select the exact Ticket statuses you want customers to receive an email alert notification for under the Tools > Options > Alerts to Customers tab. More information about configuring Alerts to Customer on Ticket status change can be found here. Hope this helps. |
