An administrator is troubleshooting an issue where Case Escalation Rules are failing to fire for high-priority cases. Which THREE common configuration mistakes could cause escalation rules to fail? (Choose three.)

Select 3 answers
A.The case status is updated, which resets the escalation timer if 'Re-evaluate Case Age' is enabled.
B.Case Team members were not assigned read permissions on the escalation queue.
C.The case was created via Email-to-Case, which bypasses escalation rules entirely.
D.Business Hours are set incorrectly on the escalation rule entry, preventing the age timer from starting.
E.The Case Escalation Rule is not marked as active.
AnswersA, D, E

Re-evaluating case age resets the timer when case fields are modified.

Why this answer

Escalation rules require specific setup: the rule must be marked active, business hours must be correctly associated (or omitted if 24/7), and the 'last modified' criteria or age over time must be configured correctly. Furthermore, rules do not fire if cases are closed or if the rule criteria are never met.

234
MCQhard

An administrator configured Omni-Channel Flow to dynamically assign skills to incoming cases based on case subject keywords. However, work items are continuously remaining in the queue and never reaching agents, even though agents possess the required skills. What is the most likely cause?

A.Agents are set to the wrong Presence Status.
B.The service channel capacity is set to Tab-Based instead of Status-Based.
C.Assigned skills do not match any online agent's assigned skills, or drop-off timeout was not configured.
D.Omni-Channel Supervisor lacks read access to the Flow object.

Unmatched skills leave work stranded in queues unless fallback rules or drop-offs are defined.

Why this answer

If work items are assigned skills that no currently online agent possesses, the work items will remain in the queue indefinitely due to strict skill matching.

235
MCQhard

Universal Containers utilizes Case Escalation Rules to escalate high-priority cases if they are not closed within 2 hours. An agent takes ownership of an escalated case, but the case is accidentally reassigned back to the queue because the 'Re-assign using active assignment rule' checkbox was left checked. Where must the consultant adjust settings to prevent this behavior on future escalations?

A.In the Omni-Channel Supervisor settings
B.In the Case Support Settings
C.In the Escalation Action detail page
D.In the Case Assignment Rule criteria definitions
AnswerC

The setting to re-assign using active assignment rules is configured directly on the individual escalation action.
