The Knowledgebase Page

The Knowledgebase page enables you to search for and insert KB solutions in the Reply, Forward, and Consult panes of the Interaction window. The search feature retrieves a highly accurate set of responses without having to sift repeatedly through a huge set of solutions.

Example  

Parker Roy, a customer, sends a message indicating that he has problems downloading photographs to his computer from the digital camera he bought from WorldWaves Inc. He has provided details of the model, the date of purchase, and a detailed procedure of how he tried to download the photographs to his computer.

As a Web Client User at WorldWaves Inc, you quickly search for a KB Solution within your Knowledgebase, and provide a solution to Parker Roy.
