Overview
The Phone Company provides mobile devices and services to corporate clients. Each client corporation has different agreements and service level agreements (SLAs) in place. Most clients have agreements that last one year and have 30 cases available. Half the cases may be opened by phone. The other half may be opened by email. The company has an existing on-premises software system. The current system no longer meets the company’s needs.
The support desk is open 8:00 am to 8:00 pm Eastern Standard Time.
Requirements
Support desk
The company plans to implement Dynamics 365. The solution will include a custom entity that needs to be search enabled.
You must configure the system to ensure that you can determine how many support tickets and new orders tickets are received. You must be able to determine which device types have the most tickets opened for issues. Business hours in the system must reflect the hours support staff is scheduled.
Case handling
✑ New cases must automatically route to the correct support group by phone type or new purchase group without requiring custom code.
✑ The system must automatically create a case when email is received by companies that are not in the system.
✑ The system must automatically send a response to an email sender upon case creation for new orders, but not for service records.
✑ Users must be able to initiate routing for manually created cases.
✑ The system must create sub-cases from one customer with different cases and also if the same issue is reported by several customers. Subcases must inherit the following fields: customer name, contact email address and case title.
✑ Main cases must not be closed until all the sub-cases are closed.
✑ Separate groups must be created for each type of service and each phone type. Access to the groups must be restricted to team members that support that service or phone type.
