What is a case? Who are your users? How are cases raised and assigned? These articles provide an overview of Case Management and link to more detailed documentation.
Overview
Case Management lets users raise cases via your customer portal, which can be tracked and updated while they are open.
Staff users manage cases, carry out tasks, contact the user who raised the case, and close the case when it's resolved.
