Not Able to Re-Open Location??

HI All

We have seen this in various locations where they were Temp Closed and we want to re-open but the option isnt there. What the heck!?

what business category is this

We have seen it for everything from Bank to Optician to Furniture Store. All different clients. Separate GMB dashboards

We found this article Reopen a location - Computer - Google My Business Help

You cant re-open it from the locations Info page! You have to re-open from the home page of dashboard. This is crazy

I was having the same issue. Thank you for posting the answer!

Looks like a bug. Re-opening it from the dashboard didn't work for me, but permanently closing then re-opening worked for me.

This might be risky from a ranking perspective though?

There are lots of people reporting that they don't have the option to reopen the listing on the info tab. I updated our article a couple days ago with 3 different ways to re-open the listing. The 2nd and 3rd should work if the first does not.
