Defining suggested responses for an Email channel
Set up suggested responses for Pega Email Bot™ so that customer service representatives (CSRs) can immediately select the most relevant reply to an email when they triage emails for an interaction case. A suggested response provides instant feedback to the customer in a clear and organized way, saving the CSRs time in responding to the initial inquiry.
For example, when users request a bank loan by email, the email bot suggests a predefined email reply that the CSR can immediately send to users, asking for their address and financial history information.When you define responses, you can create an email response template or use an existing template. If you configure multiple languages for the email bot, you set up text analysis for each language separately. This configuration ensures that the system performs email text analysis in the correct language.
For your convenience, the following default templates are available: apology, clarification, and missing information. To create additional default templates, define a Rule-Obj-Corr rule for the Work-Channel-Triage class.
