FAQ = Frequently Asked Questions
How to use FAQ in More Service:
More Service has 2 types of FAQ / knowledge articles:

  • FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions). These are published on UserWeb.
  • Known errors. These are available only to agents.

 
Create a new FAQ from a case
When you have found a good solution that users and / or other agents can benefit from, it's a good idea to create a new knowledge article. You can easily do this by using the "New Knowledge Article" icon in the solution work log.
 


Subject, description, and solution from the case are included in the article and an email is sent to the Knowledge Base Manager telling that a new proposal has been registered (if the role is defined).
Knowledge Base Manager must publish the article before it becomes visible / searchable for users and agents. If no Knowledge Base Manager is defined, the article will be published automatically.

Use a FAQ to resolve a case
When you register a new case and Object matches a knowledge base article, the question icon on the subject field turns red.


Click the question mark icon to get a suggested solution. Select the chosen article. From here you can use the "Copy to case" button or close the window.  When you copy the solution to the case, the text from the knowledge base article's reply field is added to the case's solution field

If you do not have text in the Subject and Description field of the case, "Copy to Case" will fill in these fields as well.
You can click on the question mark icon to search for solutions at any time.

If you "use Link" its just a link to FAQ in userportal you got in your mail.

FAQ on
 user web
From the menu, users have easy access to the most popular FAQs and can search for FAQs. Top 5 and Latest 5 appear at the top in the view, then «All FAQs».


 
Users can help themselves by taking advantage of FAQs, and Servicedesk gets additional time for other and possibly more complex cases.



When a user registers a new case (and the setting is enabled), More Service will present possible solutions based on the text in the subject field. From here, users can choose to register the case if the suggestions do not solve the problem.
When users click the "This solved the problem" button, this is registered and presented under the column "Helped" under Admin tabs and FAQ. Here you can also see how many times the article has been shown.

FAQ from the Service Desk tab

Here are all the knowledge base articles with status Published and Suggestions.
All agents can create new knowledge base articles from here. If a Service Desk Manager is defined, he or she must publish the article before it becomes visible / searchable.
