Automation & Workflows

Escalation

Moving an unresolved, exceptional or out-of-scope case to a responsible person or process with the authority to decide its next step. An escalation needs an owner, relevant evidence and a clear requested decision. It is neither automatic approval nor a guarantee that somebody received or acted on the handoff.
