Configuring case management settings

You can configure the case management settings for auto-closure of cases, reuse of Case ID, and auto-resolve actions for cases in Ignite (WEB).

To configure case management settings
  1. Click YourSite > Site.
  2. Click Case Management tab.
  3. Enter the required details :
    • Number of Days Before Automatically Resolving Cases Waiting For Customer Input - Setting to specify the number of days before a case with a "Waiting for customer" state is auto-resolved. Default value is 14.
    • Number of Days Before Automatically Closing Resolved Cases - Setting to specify the number of days before a case with a "Resolved" state is auto-closed. Default value is 7.
    • Maximum Number Of Days To Search Back When Looking For An Open Case that can be Reused - Setting that specifies the maximum number of days that can elapse after which the Case ID will not be reused. Default value is 3. That is if the value set is 3 and a customer contacts after 4 days after the last case was modified, a new case will be created, otherwise as long as the previous case was not closed it will be reused. Also, if multiple cases are found in the system, the Case ID of the last modified case will be reused.
      Note:

      The Case ID reuse is not applicable for Inbound email interactions.
