How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Case Event Detectedtrigger

A new case event (dispute filed, response received, document requested, or milestone date) is logged, triggering the automation workflow.

2. Fetch Case and Client Details

The automation retrieves the case record, client contact information, dispute status, and any required actions.

3. Generate Client Update

The automation composes a personalized client update email based on the case event, using predefined templates and case-specific data. The message is professional, clear, and includes next steps.

4. Requires Manager Review?

The automation checks if the update involves sensitive information, legal language, or a high-value case that requires human approval before sending.

5. Send Email

The approved update is sent to the client from the support team's account with a professional signature and tracking enabled.

6. Log Communication

The sent email, timestamp, and content are automatically logged in the case record within for audit and compliance purposes.

7. Send SMS Reminder

If the update includes a document deadline or urgent action, an SMS reminder is automatically sent to the client's phone number on the specified date.

8. Create Follow-up Task

A follow-up task is automatically created for the support team if the client is expected to respond or provide documents within a set timeframe.
