The Case Creation process is a guided process through which a self-service user can create a case. Instead of showing all case fields on a single page, an administrator can configure multiple steps for the case creation process. The administrator can specify the fields that will be displayed on each page and a description of each step. Display Template is used for setting this up.
The visibility of page elements depends on how you configure the display template for this component. Also, some fields can be assigned default values based on business unit settings. The system enters default values even if the fields are hidden
The Create Case wizard can be a single step, two step, three step, or four step process based on how it has been set up by the Administrator in the Display Template (CRM_HHD_CCASE_FL).
The display template for Self Service Case allows the administrator to:
Control individual step description in the case creation process.
Select the fields to be displayed in each step.
Enter the label for each step.
For details on display template setup, see Pages Used to Configure Display Templates for Components and Appearance and Behavior Control
When a case is created or updated, push notifications are triggered. For more details on push notifications, refer Understanding the Push Notification Framework in PeopleTools: Fluid User Interface Developer’s Guide.
