From question to resolution: your journey with Basil
 

1. Ask your question in your own words and in your own language - The moment you start the conversation, Basil will understand the intent, the context and will detect your preferred language.

2. Get your answer - If Basil clearly understands your request and relevant guidance is available, it will provide a link to the appropriate knowledge article along with a concise summary of the most relevant information, to help you find the answer quickly.

3. A support case is needed? Basil creates it for you - If Basil determines that your request cannot be resolved through available knowledge articles or guidance, it will continue the conversation by asking relevant follow-up questions to gather the information needed to assist you.

IMPORTANT: Sharing every detail upfront, such as: invoice numbers, dates, supplier email address, the exact error,  helps accelerate the support process and reduces the need for additional clarification later in the support ticket.

4. Check or update your existing support case? Just ask Basil about your ticket - no need to search the portal
