Creatio provides two out-of-the-box business processes to handle cases received by a call. The processes start when an agent receives a call from a customer.
When taking a call, an agent can choose to run one of the Creatio business processes, depending on the call purpose: create a new case or start consultation for an existing case.
The process flow depends on whether the subscriber is identified or not. The system allows identifying the contact or creating a new one. According to the customer's request, a new case will be created or the contact page will open. On this page, the agent will be able to see the history of communication with the customer and provide consultations regarding the existing cases.
When a call is received, the Calls tab becomes active on the communication panel. On the Processes detail of the Call tab, the following actions become available: Add new case and Advice on existing case. Each action starts the corresponding business process.
