When the customer replies to the RITM notification in email, the inbound action accepts the reply and updates the RITM. The RITM notification sees the update and sends a notification to the customer. I don't want the Notification to send email when the customer updates it through email.

2 ways you can try
1) ensure your notification condition is updated as this so that it doesn't send when record gets updated via system user
OR
2) when update happens in inbound action you can use setWorkflow(false)

Setting the condition, Updated by - is not - system. Does not seem to work. The notification still triggers.
If I set the Inbound Action to not trigger, then I would not get the update.
Before I had the Inbound Action, the email gets set on the RITM as activity. Nothing was set to notify the fulfilled. We do have BRs from sctask to the RITM from the fulfilled and the RITM updates the SC_task when a customer updates the RITM. Perhaps I should have those BRs set when not system. I will look. Is there another way to tackle this?
Thanks

Hello Ankur,
I don't understand where in the Inbound Action to try
or where to set setWorkflow(false).
thanks

You need to add a "NOT" condition in your notification, as suggested by Ankur. However, from a process perspective, I would advise not to make any changes in this area. If you add a condition, make sure you check all other notifications that are generated or sent when a ticket is updated by the system. Additionally, you'll need another condition to check if it's a new email or a reply, meaning you'll need to verify the source as well.
If my response proves useful, please indicate its helpfulness by selecting " Accept as Solution" and " Helpful." This action benefits both the community and me.
