How to reopen a case automatically when a new email is received(using Process Definitions)?

Hi,

I'm using Sugar 8.0.3 Enterprise, how can i re-open an existing  closed case(Status: Closed) when a new email imported via email to case functionality has the matching Case Number[Case Macro]  on the subject ?

I note that Emails is not a module that can be configured for the Process Definitions(SugarBPM) in Sugar 8x , however it is on Sugar 10x


Regards,

  • Sugar 8 hits EOL in October, so I strongly recommend you plan an upgrade for this customer.

    If that is not an option, here are some I can think of:

    • Create a SugarLogic field on the Cases module which counts the number of related Emails. Then design a SugarBPM process def which listens for a change on that newly created SugarLogic field, and reopens the case accordingly if it is closed.
    • Legacy Workflow (can't recall if its already blocked in v10) - but an "after time elapses" one can pick up the condition of a new email where a related case status = closed.
    • A logic hook.

    Good luck!

    Emails is not listed as one of the related modules that show up on Studio to set up the Rollup Count(as a calculated field), both on Sugar 8x and Sugar 10x. So i guess , customisation via code is the only way ?
