Public replies vs. internal notes (and @mentions)

When you respond in a ticket, choose a mode from the reply dropdown:

  • Reply – sends to the customer on the original channel.

  • Reply all – sends to the customer plus other recipients on the thread.

  • Forward – sends the conversation to someone else (e.g., a vendor or warehouse).

  • Internal note – a private message the customer never sees. Use it to leave context for teammates.

@Mentions

  • Inside an internal note, type @ and a teammate’s name to mention them. They get notified, and you can filter the inbox by Mentions to find tickets where you were tagged.

Send options

  • The send button has two actions: Send, and Send and mark In Progress. Redo remembers your preferred default so your most-used action is one click.

Internal notes and public replies share one timeline but are visually distinct, so it’s always clear what the customer saw.

Tips

  • Use internal notes for handoffs and context — never put internal discussion in a public reply.

  • Double-check Reply all so you don’t loop the wrong recipients into a customer thread.

  • Set your most-used default send action so closing/working tickets is one click.

  • @mention a teammate instead of reassigning when you just need a quick answer.

How this connects to other features

  • @Mentions complement assignment & routing — mention to consult, assign to transfer ownership.

  • Macros can auto-add an internal note or forward a message, so common handoffs are one click.

  • Your signature is applied to public replies and forwards.

  • The AI agent can draft replies you review before sending.
