About this task
In the application that supports Virtual Agent, for example Employee Service Center, start with a prompt to register a business application in the chat. Through a series of questions, Virtual Agent prompts you to provide information for the questions that you configured for a catalog item. Now Assist in Virtual Agent understands the context and maps the information that you provide in response to a question to an appropriate catalog item, in this case, a business application.
Procedure
Navigate to All > Self-Service > Employee Center.
Select Open chat window.
Enter an instruction to start the conversation with Virtual Agent.
You can start with a basic instruction such as Request a business application or an elaborate instruction that includes the digital integration information. The following examples show how each instruction is handled in the chat.
| Instruction | Description |
|---|---|
| Short: Request a digital integration | Virtual Agent starts a conversation to ask more information from you about the business application, through a series of questions:
|
| Elaborate: Request the new digital integration for the subscriber business application BuyIt and provider business application is Case Management. | Using the context that you provided, Virtual Agent automatically matches it to the relevant field on the business application form. It then instructs you to enter information of only those fields that you haven't provided. You can skip answering a question that is related to non-required fields by entering skip.
