The following figure depicts a typical process for cases related to facilities and the flowset-specific process for the Assignments function. The Assignments process explains how the system looks for a Flowset-specific process and assigns the case accordingly. If the Flowset-specific process is not found, the case is assigned according to the default assignment mapping.

The following table describes the stages of this process example:

BMC Helix Business Workflows enables a case business analyst to configure the assignment and read-access mapping to assign the case to the relevant support groups or individuals added in the mapping. 

Consider a scenario where a case business analyst configures a mapping for assignment and read-access with the following values:

The case business analyst configures the mapping for assigning the case to the relevant support group. After an agent creates a case, BMC Helix Business Workflows selects the mapping based on the following scenarios:

Scenario 1: Exact match is found

If all the values added in a case matches with the values defined in a mapping (best match is found), the case is assigned to the support group that is defined in the mapping.

Scenario 2: No match is found

If no match is found, the case is assigned to the support group that is defined in the default mapping. 

Scenario 3: Best match is found

If a few of the values in the case match the values defined in the mapping, the mapping with the closest match is applied.

If no best match is found and a default mapping is not defined, the case submitter must manually assign the case to a support group. If the case submitter does not manually assign the case, BMC Helix Business Workflows generates an error.

BMC Helix Business Workflows can be integrated with phone systems if the phone systems are configured to pass certain parameters to BMC Helix Business Workflows. When a case agent receives a call from such a configured phone system, Quick Case opens, and the details of the caller are automatically populated in Quick Case.
