Ensure that the closure status for all custom-created workflows is mapped to the Invoke – Queue Management trigger under the Trigger column. This configuration enables the system to automatically remove closed cases from their associated queues, thereby preventing them from being displayed in the Case List during load and optimizing overall system performance. However, you can continue to access the closed cases through the Closed Case toggle option when required.Note:
For all the predefined CS cases workflow configurations for all the closed statuses, additional validations are added that are mandate before closing the case:- Ensure comments are added
- Ensure all events in the case are closed
- To mark a case as False positive, ensure that all the events are marked as false positive in the case.
- To mark a case as True positive, ensure that at least one event in the case is marked as true positive.
- Click Save. The new workflow will be created with
Draft Status and listed in the Workflow List
pane.
Note:
If a user creates a record in the English language and then changes the language, for example, Portuguese, from the Locale drop-down in the User Preferences screen, then the next time any user logs into the application, they will be able to see the newly created record in the selected language. Also, when this record is accessed in edit mode, any changes that were done in the Name and Description fields will appear in the selected language.
