          Planning for Escalation Rules

          Planning for Escalation Rules

          Your organization may have a process for escalating cases that remain open beyond a specified period of time. To automate the process of escalating cases, create an escalation rule that specifies what actions to take when cases are not resolved within a designated length of time.

          To get started with escalation rules, consider these questions.

          • Determine the business hours. Do you have multiple support centers in multiple locations and time zones? Are your support centers available 24/7? Do you have different support hours for different days of the week?
          • Document your escalation process. Do you notify certain support representatives when cases get escalated? How old does a case need to be before it is escalated? What case attributes determine if and when it should be escalated?
          • Decide what escalation actions to take. Do you send an email when a case is escalated? Do you notify the case owner when cases are escalated?
