How to process cases from incoming calls on the home page
Creatio provides two out-of-the-box business processes to handle cases received by call. The processes start when an agent receives a call from a customer.
Attention
Telephony setup is needed to work by the processes. Furthermore, the processes are available only for the users included in the folder specified in the [Folder – Contact Center agents] system setting.
When taking a call, an employeeagent can choose to run one of the Creatio business processes, depending on the call purpose: create a new case or start a 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 employee 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 [Advise on existing case]. Each action starts the corresponding business process.
