Hello all...
We have a form called A1, and when it is completed, it often creates a child case called referral.
... Then, we have a form called C1 that is a follow-up form, that opens up those "referral" cases, and when that C1 form is completed, it closes the "referral" case.
But also, we have an "automatic case closing rule" that is set to close "referral" cases that have not been modified in 30 days. (In other words, if nobody does a "C1" form to close that referral case for 30 days, it will simply close itself.)
Here is my question, which has to do when we use the archive command to archive a form.
- Let's pretend that 6 months ago, someone filled out an A1 form, and it created the "referral" child case, and someone did indeed fill out a C1 form, which nicely closed that "referral" case.
- Now, it is 6 months later, and we are doing some correcting of data, so we archive that C1 form. Of course, the result of archiving that C1 form is that the case that it had automatically closed should spring back alive and be an open case again.
- BUT, notice that that auto case closing rule for the "referral" case type was set to 30 days. Would that case closing rule (or anything else) cause this 6-month-ago old case to NOT spring back to life if we go to archive the C1 form that had originally closed that case?
Giant thanks for your help, I know this is a tangled question.
