Resolved means the customer still has a chance to re-open the ticket. No one should be able to re-open a Closed ticket.

That way if there are still issues, it can be put back into in progress status and continued to be worked.

I answered with the escalation closes after INC has been resolved for X amount of time, etc.. but couldn't give a concrete answer as to why the process is to set to Resolved first. I seem to remember this is just ITIL - can anyone enlighten me with a quick blurb?
