Auto Follow Up

Post by slowstuff »

I am having problems getting the Auto Follow Up feature to work. I have created an auto follow up response and assigned it to the correct queues, but when I close a ticket in the queue it does not send an email to the customer as expected. Is there extra setup that is needed or any other reason that the auto follow up email is not being sent? Agent notifications work, so I do not believe it is a problem with the email system or settings.

It's not supposed to. You're supposed to use a reply to talk to your customer.

We only do phone tickets for tracking purposes and there isn't a reply option as far as I can tell. What exactly is the auto follow up response supposed to do? The manual is fairly vague.

When a customer sends an email reply to an existing ticket, this automatically responds to the customer "Thank you for your sending additional information on the ticket."

Is there any way to setup OTRS to automatically send an email to customers once their ticket has been closed?

Read the first sentence of my reply again, then read my question again ....

1 - there is no reply option for phone tickets that I can see.
2 - AUTOMATICALLY send an email.
