Request Escalation: Functional Escalation

When a Service Catalog request is approved, Service Manager automatically assigns the Service Catalog request to an individual or support group based on pre-defined parameters, such as the items ordered.

System administrators can define escalations and assignment rules to meet your requirements. For example, when fulfilled by the Request Management module, the Service Catalog request triggers the creation of a quote record. The category of the quote record dictates assignment to an individual or a service group. The role of the requester can dictate the service levels assigned to the request for the response and resolution time frame.

Service desk technicians can also manually escalate support requests.
