Closing an Enquiry

An enquiry can be closed when the visitors' questions or concerns have been answered or resolved by agents. When an enquiry is closed, conversations between the visitor and the agent are terminated immediately.

Until you or your visitor closes the enquiry, the chat room where you have conversations will stay in the Recent Chats of your Workspace - Utility Panel.

The system will send the auto close notification when the chat room doesn't have a new chat or email message after the set day and time.

How do visitors resume the conversation after that enquiry has been closed?

After staff or the system closes the enquiry, the "Still have questions" button appears in the visitor's chatroom. When visitors have questions, they can click this button, and the enquiry will resume. This button has already been introduced to the chatroom via the Web link or Widget.
