These "quick solutions" can be defined for commonly logged calls, such as a locked account or forgotten password, where the same details are required every time. Using Quick Solutions speeds up the process of logging and completing common calls.
Analysts can select a quick solution by selecting the Quick Solutions explorer option on the Call Details window, and selecting the required solutions from the displayed Select Quick Solution window. The Quick Solutions displayed will be the ones linked to the type they have chosen. If there are no Quick Solutions linked to the call’s issue type, all the Quick Solutions in the system will be displayed. You can define multiple Quick Solutions for a type.
Configured must be selected under Quick Solutions in the IPK Settings (Partitioned) windows.
If you select Disable Checks in the same window, a call to which a quick solution has been applied can be closed immediately, bypassing validation checks such as User Required, CI Required, Service Required and Type Required.
