If your company closes for a holiday, you might want to change the notification you send to customers. This article will cover the steps needed for setting up a holiday notification trigger.
To create this trigger, you will need to set up a schedule for your Zendesk, including any holidays. For more information, see the article: Setting your schedule with business hours and holidays.
Procedure
To notify customers of your company holiday, you will first need to edit the default Notify requester of received request trigger, then add a new holiday trigger. This section will instruct you on how to perform these steps.

Buenas tardes,
Actualmente en la cuenta se tiene habilitado el plan Support Suite Enterprise, quisiera saber si es posible trabajar con alguna regla de negocio disponible para los días feriados ya que se ha intentado en varias ocasiones configurar un automatizador que notifique al cliente que ese día NO se atenderá pero no se ejecuta.
Quedo atenta a su pronta respuesta.
