Has anyone using the Auto Close feature in Service Desk (12.5 or 12.6) experienced a situation where a Request was set to a resolved status, Auto Close did insert a record in to the Activity Log that "Automatic closure will occur at: MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM:SS ", but the Request never closed, just stayed in the previous resolved status indefinitely? Or, have you experienced Requests set to the resolved status on initial and Auto Close never triggering? We have had both of these scenarios happen a dozen times in the last 6 months (out of 25,000 + requests\incidents that autoclosed correctly). We are on SDM 12.6 but did have this happen other times while we were on SDM 12.5.
Thanks!

Hello Fred,
There have been a few reports of "intermittent" issues. You may like to l
og a Support issue - there may be verbose logging that could be useful for tracking the problem in more depth.
There are some areas that you could look into first, as most intermittent issues, aren't.
* Mandatory fields may stop Auto-Close. (For an intermittent problem, not likely. But may look intermittent if the change occurred between the ticket generation time and the resolution.)
* Customised SPL code can interfere.
* "Resolved" Status (or other) is not with the default attributes of that Status. Flag is that the Incident does not have a "Resolved Date."
* Child tickets still being active if option leave_children_open not installed.
* Auto-Close may use Regular Workshift. So results may not be as predicted if customer has different or no workshift.
Hello Everyone Else,
Sites that use Auto-Close - please contribute!
Thanks, Kyle_R.
