    About this task

    Depending on the type of request, you can call the customer on the phone or over Zoom.

    If the callback is requested from the Customer Service or Customer Service Portal, you can look into the customer's issue by going through the chat, related cases, knowledge base searches, and history to become familiar with the context before making the call.

    Procedure

    1. Open your workspace.
    2. When an interaction request comes in, accept it from your inbox.

      • The type of callback and interaction number
      • The name of the customer
      • The type of issue
