Reopen a resolved conversation on a new customer message

A customer writes again after their conversation was resolved, within the company's configured reopen window; the platform reopens the same conversation instead of leaving the message stranded.

When this happens: An inbound message arrives for a Resolved conversation's channel identity.

How it works

  • Writes Actually, one more question about the order three days after the conversation was resolved.
  • Identifies the sender and finds the Resolved conversation, within the company's 7-day reopen window.
  • EasyCRM reopens it: StatusId moves to the company's configured re-entry status, ReopenCount increments, a SystemEvent message records the reopen.
  • Appends the customer's message.
  • Routes the conversation to the previous responsible operator where still available (FR-24, UC-24.10).
  • EasyCRM notifies the previous responsible operator that a waiting conversation has been reactivated (FR-10, UC-10.8).

Other paths

Previous operator no longer available

If the previous operator is deactivated or otherwise ineligible. Routes through the normal routing rules instead (FR-24).

Good to know

  • The reopen window is a company setting. (FR-14, FR-25-017)
  • Refused/Lost conversations never reopen; a new customer message always starts a new conversation.
