Administrators can configure Web-to-Case and Email-to-Case or On-Demand Email-to-Case for automated case capture from websites and customer emails. Customers can log cases through various portals, and manual creation is possible through the Cases tab, related lists, or record detail pages. Unanswered or problematic questions from an answers site can be escalated into new cases. Case Management: Cases encapsulate assessment explanations, questions, or client complications. They provide a means to record and address customer issues efficiently. Key benefits include centralizing customer support interactions, integrating case information with knowledge bases, and streamlining business processes through automatic case escalation and workflow tasks. How do Cases Work in Salesforce? Cases in Salesforce represent customers’ questions or feedback regarding provided services.

Only users with the “Delete” permission on cases can perform this action. Difference Between Case and Task in Salesforce: Tasks are for to-dos, while cases are used for requests or complaints. Although cases can handle both, altering case management processes may necessitate distinct processes for to-dos and customer cases. Visibility of Cases in Salesforce: If organization-wide sharing defaults for Cases are set to ‘Private’ with ‘Grant Access Using Hierarchies’ enabled, only the case owner, owner’s managers in the role hierarchy, Salesforce admins, and profiles with ‘View All’ object permission on Cases can view a case.
