Case reports

When agents create cases for user issues, they add different information such as requester, assignee, priority, status, and so on to the cases. Case reports provide all such information related to cases. Case reports help case managers to get information about the low and high performance points in a case, analyze the case performance, and take necessary actions. Case managers can also use the case reports to monitor agents workload, distribution of cases, service target status, and so on.

Important

  • If you change your browser locale and select a value in the Priority list, the value is displayed in English. For more information about supported locales, see How do I set the language for the application?
  • (Version 20.08.01) The Line of business filter is available only from version 20.08.01 and later.
