About this task
The case screen has three tabs: Details, Activity, and Tasks. The actions you see depend on whether the case is assigned.
- Before the case is assigned, the overflow menu shows Assign case, Edit case, Close case, and Add task. Assign case and Assign to me are at the bottom of the screen.
- After the case is assigned, Close case moves to the bottom of the screen.
- Area and region managers don't see Assign case or Assign to me.
Procedure
-
In the Retail Mobile app, open the case from All cases or the My work tab on the home screen.
-
Do any of the following actions.
- To take the case yourself, tap Assign to me.
- To assign the case to someone else, tap Assign case and select the person.
- To change case details, open the overflow menu and tap Edit case. You can change Short description, Priority, Description, Assigned to, Assignment group, and Due date. Short description and Priority are required.
- To break the work into tasks, tap Add task at the bottom of the Tasks tab or in the overflow menu. For details, see Add a task to a case on Retail Mobile.
- To close the case, tap Close case. Optionally, enter Resolution notes and add an attachment, and then tap Submit. If you're an area or region manager, confirm the close in the Yes/No popup.
Result
When someone is assigned, the case moves from New to Open and the assignee gets a push notification. When you close the case, it moves to Closed, even if it has open tasks. Every change is recorded on the Activity tab.
