Inboxes

Inboxes are used to handle Cases. System Users can be assigned to Inboxes such as ‘Finance’, ‘Customer Service’ or ‘Technical’.

Cases can then be assigned to an Inbox where a User may take ownership and ‘handle’ the Case eg a Finance User might take ownership of a Case in the Finance Inbox that had been raised where a Customer had complained about poor video quality.
