Question Mappings
You can assign a call template for Users who submit a query using the Ask a Questionfeature in the Self Service Portal.
Users who are registered on Self Service Portal can Ask a Question. You can create question maps so that when they specify particular knowledge profiles, services and/or issue types, a particular call template will be used to log a call for their question.
