Troubleshoot Reopened Ticket Reassignment Issues

Discover why reopened tickets may not be reassigning to online agents and how to fix this issue in Zendesk.

Why aren't my reopened tickets reassigning to online agents?

If your reopened tickets aren't reassigning to online agents, it might be due to the omnichannel routing settings. Ensure that the 'Turn on reassignment for reopened tickets' option is enabled in the Admin Center under the omnichannel routing configuration.

This setting allows tickets to be reassigned to the same group when their status changes back to Open. If this option is not enabled, tickets may not be reassigned as expected, leading to potential delays in ticket handling.
