How do I configure the INCIDENT FORWARD CONFIGURATION OPTION: ADD REPLIES TO THREAD feature?
Environment:
Incident Workspace Designer
Agent Browser UI only
Release 21C and later
Resolution:
A new feature is available in the 21C release and newer, where administrators can control whether replies to forwarded incidents should be added to the incident thread as a private note and whether agents should be allowed to disable this option when forwarding an incident.
This allows you to retain a comprehensive communication history in incident threads, including replies to forwarded incidents.
In order to enable this feature, follow the steps below:
The EGW_SAVE_EMAIL_HEADERS configuration setting must be set to YES (1).
The IFWD_UI_FROM_ADDR configuration setting must be set to 3.
- Open an incident workspace in the Workspace Designer.
- Open the Ribbon Designer, select the appropriate forward button for BUI and select -Edit Button-.
NOTE: If your workspace has the forward button in the quick access area you MUST select and configure that button - Select the option to -Add Internal Responses to Thread- and -Allow Agent to Control Internal Responses- (if desired).
- Save and close the workspace.
- Open an incident using this workspace on the Agent Browser UI and select the forward button.
- Note that the Forward Comments option can be de-selected (leave it selected).
- Enter a forward note and send.
- Only an existing account can reply to a forwarded incident and be recorded as a private note.
- Note that the comments in the Forward window are added to the incident thread.
- The reply from an existing account in Oracle B2C Service will be recorded in a private note thread along with any attachments.
