Introduction

CSM helps us to provide service and support to customer.

CSM application enables us to provide service and support for our external customers through communication channels such as web, email, chat, phone and social media. Customers contact our organization through this channels to seek assistance with the product or the service that they have purchased. Case Management helps organizations to effectively track and organize customer interactions. A customer/agent creates a new case to identify a customer question or an issue and to track the activities related to resolving the issue. Created cases are automatically routed to available customer service agent depending upon skill, availability and location.

Know your customer

Customer services cases store a variety of customer information such as accounts, contacts, consumers, assets, products, and service contracts.

The Customer Service Management application also stores information about account and contact relationships.

The foundation data enables agents to quickly and easily access case-related information.

1.Customer

Customer information includes the account and contact information for a customer or partner. Consumer information includes the name, phone number, and one or more addresses for a consumer.

2.Partner

A partner is a external customer that supports one or more customers. A partner account record stores information about a partner’s company.On a partner account record, the Partner field is enabled. A partner can report and manage cases on behalf of customers. A partner can also be a customer.

3.Consumer

A consumer is a customer of a business-to-consumer (B2B) use case. A consumer record stores similar information as a contact record, such as the name, phone number, address, and email address. Consumers can have multiple addresses, one of which is the primary address.

4.Accounts

An account is a supported external customer and the Account form stores the customer’s information, including the company name, contact names, addresses, phone numbers, and web and email addresses. An account can be a customer account, a partner account, or both.

An account can have one or more associated assets, service contracts, entitlements, and SLAs. An account can also be associated with the following entities:

  • case
  • contact
  • service contract
  • entitlement
  • asset

5.Contact

A contact is a user who is an employee of an account. A contact record stores information about a contact, such as the name, phone number, email and web address. An account can have multiple contacts but a contact can be associated with only one account. A contact can have one or more associated assets and service contracts. A contact can also have a user ID and can log in to the customer portal.

6.Contract

A service contract record stores information about the type of support that is provided to a designated company. A contract can include a company , contact and the specific assets that are covered. A contract can also include multiple service entitlements and SLAs.

7.Entitlements

An entitlement defines the type of support that a customer receives as well as the supported communication channels. An entitlement can be associated with a product, an asset, an account, or a contract.

An entitlement check is performed when a case is opened. This check takes into consideration the existing cases for the specific account, product, asset, and service contract. Entitlements can have associated workflows that drive recommended activities for a case.

Entitlements are counted on a per unit basis. The Unit field on the Service Entitlement form defines the unit type, either cases or hours.

Entitlements can also be tracked on a per unit basis. The Total Units field defines the total number of cases or hours available for this entitlement and the Remaining Units field tracks the number of units remaining. These counters are active if the Per Unit field is enabled.

8.Asset:

Assign an asset to a customer contact who is responsible for managing that asset.

The system administrator can add a primary contact to an asset by selecting a user in the Primary Contact field on the Asset form. This field references the Contacts table and is filtered by the asset’s account.

The system administrator can also create relationships with additional contacts from the Asset Contacts related list on the Asset form.

When we create an asset contact relationship, we can select contacts from:

•The account that the asset belongs to.

•The partner of the account that the asset belongs to.

•Any contacts added to these accounts using contact relationships.

9.For Business-to-business (B2B) customers, configure these below entities

•Accounts

•Contacts

•Users and groups (agents and managers)

•Product models and assets

•Service contracts

•Entitlements

•Customer relationships

•Asset relationships

•Account teams

10.For Business-to-consumer (B2C) customers, configure these blow entities

•Consumers

•Users and groups (agents and managers)

•Product models and assets

Relationships

1.Bi-directional accounts

Create a relationship between two customer accounts or between a partner account and a customer account Once an account relationship record is created, it can be viewed on the Account form for either account in the Account Relationships related list.

2.Account relationship types

An account relationship is based on a defined account relationship type. Users with the system administrator role can define two types of relationships: partner-to-account and account-to-account.

3.Account relationship records

Once an account relationship type has been defined, users with the customer service manager role can use it to create relationship records between specific accounts or partners.

4.Account hierarchy

Use the account hierarchy feature to create a parent-child relationship between accounts. An account hierarchy represents the legal entity structure of the accounts and their relationships. It also represents an account’s customers, assets, and service entitlements.

Customer administrators can do the following for all of the accounts in the hierarchy:

•View and create cases.

•View assets and users.

•View and manage contacts.

csm04042020 (32).png

Account hierarchy

csm04042020 (33).png

5.Contact relationship

A contact relationship allows a contact with the customer role or customer administrator role to manage the account for which the contact relationship has been established. These contacts can view information and perform actions on behalf of the accounts, such as creating or updating cases from the customer portal.

To configure foundation data:

1.Create or import data for associated entities.

2.Assign roles to groups or to individual users.

3.Create service contracts and entitlements.

4.Create customer relationships, asset relationships, and account teams.

Case Management

The customer service case is the primary entity of the customer service application.

An agent creates a new case to identify a customer’s question or issue and to track the activities related to resolving the issue.

An agent also uses a case to track all of the communication to and from the customer, including the communication channels being used.

Case activities include any action that is taken to resolve an issue.This can include phone calls or emails, knowledge base research, conversations with subject matter experts, and dispatch requests to field service agents, as well as other activities.

From the Case form, an agent can associate and store the related information, such as the customer’s name, phone number, and company,account information,product and asset information,service contract and entitlement details, and any associated service level agreements (SLAs).

Case Management Process:

•Configure the Case form

•Create rules to route and assign customer service cases

•Assignment workbench

•Special handling notes

•Case and account escalation

•Case action status

•Automatically close customer service cases

Case form

csm04042020 (40).png

Case Routing

Matching rules and assignment rules helps to route the cases to customer service agents.

Matching rules specify conditions that a case must meet before it can be routed to an agent.Then an assignment rule is used to route those cases to agents based on product knowledge and availability.

Matching Rules

Matching rules are based on two defined sets of conditions:

  1. Applies To
  2. Resource

Matching rules are created using the Matching Rule form.

csm04042020 (41).png csm04042020 (42).png

In the resource tab we have Matching field.

Four options are there

1.Selection Criteria

2.Scripted

3.Advanced

4.Simple.

If you selected “Selection Criteria” Then you can get option Select Criteria as below

csm04042020 (43).png

Matching criteria

csm04042020 (44).png

The assignment workbench uses configurable matching criteria to evaluate the agents in a selected group and provide an overall ranking.

Several matching criteria are provided with the assignment workbench:

csm04042020 (45).png

There are three types of matching criteria:

• Simple Match: creates one-to-one matching, such as matching the time zone of an agent with the time zone of a task location.

• Aggregate: uses a simple query and returns an aggregate result. For an aggregate type, select a table and create a filter, and then select an aggregate field such as the Assigned to field. This type of query returns a set of users.

• Scripted: uses a scripted query which returns a list of users.

csm04042020 (46).png

At first create matching criteria.

Create Matching Rule and go to Resource tab and select Matching drop down as Selection criteria and selecting the desired matching criteria.

csm04042020 (47).png

Click on New button

csm04042020 (48).png

In the Use for field, specify how you want that matching criterion to be used:

• Ranking and display: uses the criterion to determine agent ranking and displays it in a column on the workbench.

• Display only: displays the criterion in a column on the workbench but does not use it to determine agent ranking.

• Ranking only: uses the criterion to determine agent ranking but does not display it on the workbench.

Ranking method

There are two ranking methods:

• More is better: for example, more availability is better when determining the agent ranking.

• Less is better: for example, fewer assigned cases are better when determining agent ranking.

Weight

Each matching criterion has an assigned weight. By default, the matching criteria in the Recommendation for Case Assignment matching rule have an assigned weight of 10. You can assign a higher weight to the criteria that are more important.

Threshold

A threshold sets a minimum requirement for a criterion.

For example, set the threshold of the Matching Skills criterion to 3 if you want to see only those agents who have at least three of the required skills for a task.

For availability, set the threshold to the desired number of hours to display only those agents who have that minimum number of work hours available.

You can set the threshold in the Select Criteria related list on the Matching Rule form. If necessary, personalize the list and add the Threshold column.

Assignment Rules

Assignment Rules helps to automatically assign task to users and groups based on 3 different criteria

  1. Applies to
  2. Assign to
  3. Scripted.

Applies to and assign to can work together to determine how cases are distributed

csm04042020 (49).png

Click on New button

csm04042020 (50).png

csm04042020 (51).png

Scripted: When the criteria needs to be more customized

csm04042020 (52).png

Create service level agreements

A service level agreement (SLA) is a record that specifies the time within which service must be provided.

The Customer Service Management application uses the standard ServiceNow SLA with customer service cases. An SLA can be attached to a service contract, to a company, and to a product and can be configured to start, pause, and stop based on any customer service case attributes.

Define an SLA for a customer service case

  1. Navigate to Customer Service > Cases > All.
  2. Select the desired case from the Cases list.

  3. From the SLAs related list, click New. csm04042020 (25).png

  4. Fill in the fields on the Task SLA form.

csm04042020 (26).png

5.Click Submit.

CSM integration with Service Management

We can integrate CSM module with ITSM modules like Incident, Problem, Change, and Request Management.

This integration helps us to create Incident, Change, Problem and Request from Case and vice versa.

The integration with ITSM provides the following functionality:

•Agents can create incident, problem, change, and request records from open cases. csm0404202089.PNG

•We can also create case from incident, problem, change, and request records.

csm0404202092.PNG

•Agents can associate existing incident, problem, change, and request records with cases or remove associated records from cases.

•Customers can submit requests from the Customer Service Portal. A case is created for each request.

•Updates to records associated with a case automatically update the case work notes.(We have OOTB business rules to update the worknotes)

•Updates to cases with associated records can be used for customer communication.

•Agents and managers can view cases with Service Management-related indicators on the Customer Service dashboards.

Plugins

Required plugins for integration are as follows

•com.sn_cs_sm : For Incident, Problem and Change integration

•com.sn_cs_sm_request: For request management integration. csm0404202091.PNG

In the case form we have Related Records form section.This section includes the following fields:

•Incident

•Problem

•Change Request

•Caused by Change

csm0404202090.PNG

When an incident, problem, or change record is created from a case, or an existing record is associated with a case, the record number is added to the corresponding field.

Related list

In related list section of Case form we can see Incident,Change,Problem and Request related lists.

Agent can create new incident,change,Problem,request records from cases or associate existing Incident,Change,Problem and Request to cases.

csm0404202089.PNG

When we create an Incident,Change,Problem,Request recods from cases we may want to copy the details like description,priority to the newly created incident/problem.

To do this, we can create an Display business rule that copies the parent.<fields> into the incident/problem

Below is the code:

  (function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/) {
	
	var rec = new GlideRecord('dl_u_priority');
	rec.addQuery('priority',current.parent.priority);
	rec.query();
	if(rec.next()) {
		current.urgency= rec.impact;
		current.impact= rec.urgency;
		current.priority=current.parent.priority;
	}
})(current, previous);

CSM integration with Event Management

We can integrate CSM module with ITOM module like Event Management.

This integration helps us to create cases proactively from alerts either manually or through automation and track the accounts and the corresponding install base items affected by the alert.

Phone channel

External customers can reach out to customer service agents by phone. The Customer Service Management application uses both Computer Telephony Integration (CTI) and OpenFrame to provide phone support for customers.

CTI provides a way to integrate the Now Platform with telephony providers to support inbound and outbound calls.

With this integration, customer service agents can place and accept calls from customers, quickly identify customers and account information, and capture case-related information.

OpenFrame is a tool that enables CTI capability with telephony service providers. OpenFrame provides a communication frame that agents use to place and receive customer calls.

  1. Navigate to OpenFrame > Configurations to display the OpenFrame Configurations list.

Notify:

Notify provides support for SMS and voice channels on the ServiceNow platform for communicating internally with team members and externally with customers and contractors. The plug-in also provides APIs and workflow activities to achieve the above. Some customers directly make use of the APIs in their products others via products like Major Incident Management, On-Call and CTI Softphone.

Customer service chat channel

Customers can use the chat channel to communicate with a customer service agent. The chat communication channel uses the ServiceNow Connect Support feature to provide chat capability. You can also enable Virtual Agent to create or use predefined chatbot topics (conversations) for your users. The user always has the option of switching to a live agent.

The Customer Service Portal and Consumer Service Portal include a chat icon that customers can click to open a chat window and start a discussion with a customer service agent.

The chat request from the customer is either routed to a virtual agent or to an available agent with the required skill set. The agent can respond to the customer and, if necessary, create a new case or link the discussion to an existing case.

Agents must be added to the Customer Service chat support assignment group before they can receive chat requests. This assignment group is used by the Customer Service chat queue to route the chat requests.

Configure the customer service chat queue

• Case agents, who handle cases created from the Customer or Consumer Service Portals or from inbound emails.

• Phone agents, who handle customer phone inquiries.

• Chat agents, who handle customer chat requests. Agent Workspace for CSM makes it easy for agents to efficiently manage multiple cases, accounts, customers, and consumers.

• The multi-tab interface improves agent productivity by enabling agents to easily navigate between records.

• The ribbon provides overview information in a way that quickly orients an agent to case details.

• The intuitive Case form layout minimizes scrolling by displaying case details side-by-side with the activity stream.

• Agent Assist enables agents to quickly search for information across multiple sources such as knowledge bases and community sites.

• Predictive Intelligence can provide agents with a list of similar cases and can also provide recommendations about major issues and major cases.

Agent Workspace for CSM landing pages

Landing pages provide customer service agents with an overview of their new, assigned, and high priority cases plus the cases assigned to their groups. Landing pages can also include analytics. Customer service agents can use these pages to quickly scan and access cases.

The CSM Landing Page is available for Agent Workspace for CSM. This landing page is included with the CSM Workspace plugin (com.snc.agent_workspace.csm). It includes components that display case information, plus visualizations that further break down the component data. Each visualization is connected to a data source. For example, the My High Priority Cases component includes visualizations for P1 and escalated cases. This landing page does not require a Performance Analytics license.

To add Performance Analytics information to the CSM Landing Page landing page, activate the Performance Analytics - Content Pack - Customer Service Management - Advanced plugin (com.snc.pa.customer_service_advanced).

AWA for CSM overview

Use the ServiceNow®Advanced Work Assignment (AWA) for Customer Service Management feature to automatically assign work items to agents based on their availability, capacity, and skills. AWA for CSM pushes work to qualified agents using work item queues, routing conditions, and assignment criteria that you define. Agents see their assignments in their Agent Workspace inbox.

Work Assignment

Use the ServiceNow®Advanced Work Assignment (AWA) feature to automatically assign work items to your agents, based on their availability, capacity, and optionally, skills. AWA pushes work to qualified agents using work item queues, routing conditions, and assignment criteria that you define. Agents see their assignments in their Agent Workspace inbox.

Customers use different channels to request service, for example, chats, cases, or incidents. Requests from customers create task or interaction records that store information about these objects, called work items.

AWA automatically routes work items to queues that focus on certain types of support, using criteria (such as priority or customer status) that you provide. Queues can be defined based on need or type, for example product or critical cases. You also identify the agent groups responsible for work in the queue. AWA then applies assignment rules that you set and uses agent availability, capacity, and skills (if defined) to assign work to the most qualified agent.

Advanced Work Assignment components

Service channels A means of providing customer service. AWA offers base system channels for chats, cases, incidents, and walk-up centers. For each channel, you can set attributes such as agent capacity and utilization conditions to control the work handled in the channel.

Work items

A single piece of work to be handled by an agent from start to completion. For example, one chat or one case are objects that are routed and assigned to agents. Work item queues A queue stores a specific type of work item for a service channel. AWA admins can create queues that focus on certain types of support within the channel, such as VIP customers or critical cases. AWA routes work items to queues based on specific conditions or requirements that you define, such as customer status, or region. Groups assigned to each queue handle the incoming work items. Once work items are placed in a queue, AWA can then assign items to available agents based on assignment rules and agent availability and capacity.

Assignment groups

Agents belong to specific groups that are organized by the type of work assigned to them. You provide details about an assignment group including the name and description, manager, and group email. You can also set up roles, groups and group members, queues, and agent capacity overrides for agents in an assignment group.

Assignment rule Criteria that determines how work items are pushed to the appropriate agent within a qualified assignment group.

Agent capacity The maximum number of work items on a particular service channel that an agent may actively work on at one time.

Agent availability

States that indicate agent presence and whether the agent is available for work or is busy or offline. AWA uses the agent availability state to determine if an agent is able to receive work.

Inbox layout

A configuration tied to a service channel that defines which fields of a record representing a work item are shown in agent inboxes. A layout defines what the agent sees in Agent Workspace.

Basic process for configuring AWA

Users with the awa_admin role determine:

• What to route – Configure the base service channels to be used.

• Where to route – Define the work item queues and the routing rules, execution order, work item sort order, and strategy

• How to assign work items – Define the assignment rules that determine the work items pushed to agents

• What the agent sees – Set the inbox card layouts and presence (availability) states that agents use in their Agent Workspace inbox.

Get started with Advanced Work Assignment

  1. Activate the Advanced Work Assignment plugin for your instance.

csm04042020 (86).png

  1. Activate related AWA plugins to enable base system service channels and the Performance Analytics Solution for AWA. For example, activate the Agent Chat plugin to enable the Chat service channel and Agent Chat in Agent Workspace.

  2. Configure the service channels that you activated.

o Create or modify an inbox layout.

o Override agent capacity as needed.

  1. Create agent groups to which work items are assigned.

  2. Create work item queues for your service channels.

o Define the pools of agents eligible for assignment (eligibility assignment).

o Set the sort order for work items in the queue.

  1. Configure the work assignment rules used to push work to the appropriate agents.

  2. Set the controls that agents use to manage their availability states and assignments in Agent Workspace.

o Create or update the presence states that agents use to indicate their availability.

o Create or update the reasons that agents use to decline work assignments.

Assignment Workbench:

Assignment Workbench enables customer service managers to assign tasks to the best agent available.

The workbench uses configurable criteria, such as skills and availability, to evaluate agents in a selected group and provide an overall ranking.Managers can view these results and use the simple UI to assign a task.

Configure the Assignment workbench

The assignment workbench configuration is stored in a matching rule that is based on the Selection criteria matching type. The default configuration uses the Recommendation for Case Assignment matching rule, which includes three of the four default matching criteria:

• Availability Today • Matching Skills • Assigned Cases

Based on these matching criteria, the workbench calculates and displays an overall rank for each agent in the group. You can modify or create matching criteria and the Recommendation for Case Assignment matching rule as needed or you can create your own configuration following these steps:

  1. Create one or more matching criteria.
  2. Create a matching rule with the Selection criteria matching type.
  3. Open the matching rule and add the desired matching criteria.

If you are using mandatory skills, you must replace the Matching Skills criterion in this matching rule with the Matching Skills - Mandatory Skills Support criterion to match agents with mandatory skills required for a case.

Open any case and click on find agent ion the Assigned to Field
