Updates to a closed ticket

We have updates to a ticket configured via inbound email action. However, when a requestor replies to a closed ticket, there is no way for itil user

or requestor to track updates on ticket as the ticket does not get updated.

How can i configure to send an email notification when updates are to a closed ticket via email.

The notification should be basically sent out to the requestor that this ticket has been closed and should open a new ticket...something on these lines

Hi kjcv912



We have done something like this:



1. On the inbound action that handles update incidents:



//This will create the event call "ticked.closed.autoreply" and put it in the que.


if (current.state == "7")


  {


  gs.eventQueue("ticket.closed.autoreply", current, email.origemail, '');


  }



Now remember, if you don't want the incident to be updated, you might need to tweak your code here a bit so it doesn't update the incident as well.



2. Create the notification that you want to send back to the sender. Make it trigger on an event like this:

Just let me know if it's clear enough or you get stuck.

Sorry,



To late in the evening to explain this. I forgot 1 thing.



Between nr 1 & 2 you have to register the even to be able to use it in "nr.2".



Go to system policy->events->registry and click on "new".



do something like this:
