Zendesk Refund Ticket Policy Triage and Router

What it does
Every refund-related Zendesk ticket is classified into a policy tier — standard, partial, or exception — then gets a matching draft reply. Clear-cut tickets are prepped for fast resolution; risky ones are tagged and moved to a supervisor queue so nothing borderline ships without review.
When to use it
Use it when a shared refund inbox mixes simple in-window requests with messy edge cases, and you want consistent tiering plus a clean handoff for the cases a supervisor must own.
How it works
- 1A new or updated Zendesk ticket matching refund criteria triggers the flow.
- 2An OpenAI step reads the ticket and customer history, then assigns a policy tier and a recommended action.
- 3A logic branch separates standard/partial tiers from exception or high-dollar tiers.
- 4Standard tickets receive a drafted macro reply added as an internal note and are tagged for agent send.
- 5Exception tickets are tagged, reassigned to the supervisor group, and updated with the policy rationale.
- 6A summary line is written back to the ticket so the next agent sees the verdict at a glance.
