3574696 - Service Team Not Cleared When Changing Case Type During Case Creation in SAP Service Cloud Version 2

Symptom

  • During the creation of a new case, the Service Team is determined.
  • If the case type is changed during the creation process without saving, the Service Team does not get cleared and becomes non-editable.

Environment

  • SAP Service Cloud Version 2 1.0
  • SAP Sales Cloud Version 2 1.0

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Create a new case from the home page.
  2. Select a case type (e.g., Type A) and fill in the necessary details without saving.
  3. Change the case type to a different one (e.g., Type B).
  4. Observe that the assigned team field does not clear and becomes un-editable.

Cause

Missing or incorrect configuration/Implementation

Resolution

  • The solution depends on the method used for determining the assigned team. If the administrator configured rules using Case Routing to Team, it is necessary to carefully review the matching criteria applied.
    • For example, review the configuration under:
    • Settings → Cases → Rules: Case Routing to Team → Sequence
    • The following criteria may be included:
      CriteriaCriteriaCriteriaCriteria
      Case TypePriority CodeSource CodeCategory Level 1/Display ID
      Category Level 2/Display IDSubjectEscalation StatusLife Cycle Status
      SourceStatusStatus CodeCategory Level 1 ID / Name
      Category Level 2 ID / NameTeamParty RoleAction

      Sample Configuration:

      1Type A**CAT_A1**TEAM_ALPHA28
      2Type B**CAT_B1**TEAM_BETA28

      Recommendation:

      • Since the matching criteria are based on Category Level 1, to clear the assigned team when changing the case type, the user must first clear the Category Level 1 field.
      • Once this field is cleared, the assigned team will also be reset.
      • Alternatively, administrators can create an additional rule specifically designed to reset the assigned team when the case type changes.
