The SupportCandy – Automatic Close Tickets Addon is an essential automation tool for maintaining a clean and efficient helpdesk. It automatically closes tickets after a specified period of inactivity, ensuring your support queue stays organized and manageable.
Whether you want to close resolved tickets, mark tickets inactive after no response from customers, or enforce cleanup rules for large support teams—this addon provides flexible configuration options to suit all workflows. Choose how many days of inactivity trigger closure, set custom status labels, notify customers before auto-close, and control which departments or ticket types are affected.
Perfect for businesses that receive large volumes of support requests and need to keep their ticket queue streamlined and clutter-free.
Use this addon alongside SLA, Workflows, Notifications, and other SupportCandy extensions to build a fully automated support ecosystem.
