  • BSelect show closed statuses in Case status field in support settings.
  • CModify the time criteria in the escalation rule.
  • DCreate a custom checkbox field called Has_Been_Excalated_c

Explanation

To effectively track cases that have been escalated even after they are closed, an administrator should create a custom checkbox field to permanently mark escalation status and potentially adjust escalation rule criteria to prevent premature unchecking of the standard 'Escalated' field.

Common mistakes.

  • A. The option 'Use Process statuses in Case Status field in support settings' is not a standard Salesforce configuration for directly managing the 'Escalated' checkbox or tracking historical escalation.
  • B. Selecting 'show closed statuses in Case status field in support settings' only affects which status values are visible for selection; it does not impact the behavior of the 'Escalated' checkbox on case closure or historical tracking.

Concept tested. Case escalation tracking customization
