Hi @mymuk
Greetings from the freshworks community!
I understand that some of the responses like ‘thank you’ don’t need a reply from the agent. However, these flags are generated by the system based on the actions performed. Unfortunately, as of now, we do not have an option to remove the system-generated flags as these are hard coded from the backend and will also impact SLA and other factors. As a suggestion, you can add an empty public note to the ticket to remove the “customer responded” state.
The feature release is a part of the road map, but we do not have any tentative ETA yet. We’ll share the details once there is some considerable progress :)
Hey FreshDesk Team, do you have any update on this? Customers have been complaining about this for awhile, on several different forums threads. Please fix it. It’s very annoying. You need to add a way for us to manually clear the Customer Responded flag. Please listen to us.
Hello!
@Aishvarya as for the workaround you’ve mentioned - creating an empty public note to the ticket.. I guess a customer will receive an empty e-mail from support, correct? Then this workaround is not helping at all.
If state where a condition in automations, this wouldn’t be a problem.
Any chance on that happening?

Is there any update on the roadmap for this issue?
@Aishvarya
Can you please provide any sort of update regarding the roadmap for this feature. There needs to be some way to clear “Customer Responded” from tickets that do not need an actual follow up. If a customer responds saying “Thank you, talk to you then”, are we expected to reply back to them saying “Thank you for thanking me. See you then”?
What if they reply back saying “Thanks”? We will then need to reply back to them saying “You’re welcome”? What if they then say “My pleasure”? I’m sure you see how this can keep going back and forth.
It is unnecessary clutter for the end-customer to have to continue to receive emails from the support desk, strictly because Freshdesk does not have a way (somehow) to clear this flag.
The workaround of “add an empty public note to the ticket” does not work, by the way. It is actually impossible to add an empty note to the ticket. The button is greyed out and will not let you post an empty public note. Further, this workaround would also result in an empty email to someone.
Please provide an update on this highly requested feature.
Thanks
