  • Patent number: 11226950
    Abstract: Techniques for providing feed-based case management on an online social network. A user interface that includes a publisher and an information feed is provided. Information associated with a record is received and the record is updated in a database system. A feed item associated with the database system update is generated and provided in the information feed. The feed item includes one or more actionable selections providing a reference to the publisher. Selection of one of the one or more actionable selections causes the publisher to be operable to receive further information associated with the record. The record is capable of being updated based on the further information. In some implementations, the record is a case and the user interface serves as a single interface for all interactions required in solving the case.

  • Patent number: 10684752
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods, apparatus, systems, and computer-readable storage media for responding to actionable text patterns in a feed item. In some implementations, a computing device receives textual input for a feed item to be published in an information feed. The computing device identifies in the textual input an actionable text pattern and transmits a portion of the actionable text pattern to a server. The computing device receives, from the server, one or more names of entities. The entities may be object records stored in a database, wherein the names of the entities match the portion of the actionable text pattern transmitted to the server. The computing device receives a selection of a first of the one or more names.

  • Patent number: 9398156
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods, apparatus, systems, and computer-readable storage media for managing customer service agent workload in a customer service environment. In some implementations, one or more servers receive a communication associated with a customer case item. The one or more servers determine one or more case attributes associated with the customer case item and identify a first customer service agent having one or more agent attributes that match the one or more case attributes of the customer case item. The one or more servers assign the customer case item to the first customer service agent and provide first data of the customer case item to a first display device associated with the first customer service agent, the first display device configured to display a user interface including a first component indicating the first data of the customer case item.

  • Publication number: 20140032597
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods, apparatus, systems, and computer-readable storage media for processing communications in a service environment. In some implementations, a computing device receives an incoming communication directed to the service environment. The incoming communication may include first information associated with the communication. The computing device identifies a first one or more user records as having record information matching the first information or having record information matching a variation of the first information. In some implementations, the computing device opens for display, without reloading a user interface provided in a web browser, a first component displaying the record information of the identified first one or more user records, and one or more search fields configured to receive user input data for performing a search.
