How ProDesk uses Remedy

Summarizing the case

When creating a case, we first associate that case with an individual. This person becomes the primary point of contact for us while the case is open. Status updates and requests for additional information are automatically sent to the individual with whom the case is associated when correspondence is issued from within the Remedy application.

Periodically, we receive requests for assistance from more than one individual in a school or center. We make every effort to consolidate reports into a single case, but we do occasionally submit duplicate cases. This can result in one case receiving little or no attention even though the issue is being addressed in another case.

To reduce confusion, we ask that your organization identify a single point of contact with whom we can associate a case in instances where multiple LSPs must be involved in a case.


A meaningful summary of the issue is provided

The summary is what appears in email correspondence sent to you from within the Remedy application. It is also the high-level case overview we see in our Remedy console. Because of this, we have implemented business rules that provide standards for content and format of our case summaries to ensure that all parties can quickly distinguish one case from another.
