This is a review of the Customer Note Activity screen, also referred to as The NAC. This module is used for management of e-mails, letters and various tasks.
Note Activity
Customer Number
This displays the customer number the note is assigned to. Scanned/Mailed letters will be assigned to a Proxy Customer account and then manually assigned to the customer's account by a user.
Customer Name
The name associated with the customer's account. If there is no name on file, this will display as EMAILONLY.
Remaining Notes
This displays how many open notes are in the queue/waiting to be worked based on the folder the user is assigned to.
Current Folder
Displays the folder path for the note beginning with the parent folder. The parent folder name will indicate the source (MAIL, EMAIL, TASKS) or the Affiliate name/org (INH, INTERNATIONALLLIVING, AF).
This completes the current note, and moves the rep to the next note.*never hit ‘OK’ until a done date is filled in*
Undo
This clears any text that the rep has entered in the Note phase.
Transfer
This allows a rep to move a note to another folder. Generally this is used when the rep does not know how to handle the note. When transferring, the rep is required to pick the folder to transfer the note to, as well as a reason for the transfer.
Hold
This allows a rep to place a note on hold, and continue to work on others. When placing a note on hold, the rep must enter a hold reason.
Held Notes
This brings up a dialog displaying all of the user’s held notes. The rep may then choose to work one of the help notes, or transfer it. If the rep chooses to work a held note, any changes to the current note (the note being worked before Held Notes was pushed) will be lost.
Send Response
This allows you the send a letter (response) to the customer. This will require you to fill out a series of questionnaires.
Change Customer
This will allow you to change the customer if an incorrect customer has been assigned to a note. This may happen if a customer has multiple accounts.
