Portal Overview

Last Modified on 02/08/2024 4:11 am EST

V10.3.1 and later

The Cora Orchestration portal is built on the latest cutting edge React technology, which enables new functionality and easy customization.

The UI is simple, and organized with the single-page application approach. You get a unified case management working area, which is accessible in one place, based on your role(s).

For operations purposes, you can sign in to the portal as an Operations Manager, a Team Leader, or a Team Member. Each role has access to different data and information.

NOTE
Runtime forms, Analytics dashboards (based on FusionCharts), and portal grids (based on Kendo UI for jQuery) remain in their previous technology.

Watch the following demos to learn more:

When you sign in to the portal for the first time, you land on the All Cases page with Cases I started sub menu.

All Cases

Based on your role, the All Cases menu displays a list of the cases you have started and the cases you have view permissions for.

For a solution other than Cora Orchestration, you land on the My Work page with Cases Assigned To Me sub menu when you sign in to the portal for the first time.

My Work

Based on your role, you can view and handle cases and tasks in the portal. The case and task details displayed depend on your permissions.

The My Work menu displays cases and tasks based on the selected solution and your role.

For systems that include HotOperations, you can have the following options, based on your role(s):

Role	Menu option	Description
Team member	Cases Assigned to Me	Cases fetched by or assigned to team member.
Team member	Cases In Queue	Cases assigned to the team member's role in the team.
Team Leader	My Teams Cases	Cases assigned to the team leader's team(s).
Operations Manager	My Operation Cases	Cases allocated to the Operations Manager's operation.

General functionality

Besides All Cases, the menu includes the following out-of-the-box options: Analytics and Archive. Depending on your role there may appear other options in the menu list.

Among other things, you can select solutions, access your tasks, and search for cases or tasks in the portal.

Select a solution

Cora Orchestration is the first preselected solution for every user on signing in for the first time. It provides basic orchestration functionality. If your system includes other solutions, a list of the solutions is available for your display, based on your role and permissions. The selection is saved in the user's last portal state.

Create a case

You can create cases from the All Cases/My Work page.

To create a new case:

Click the + button.
A list of the cases to which you have permission to create appears.
Select the case for which you want to create an instance.

A new case opens in a new tab next to the All Cases/My Work tab.

The All New Case Types option at the bottom of the case list opens a new tab that displays all the type of cases for which you have permission to create.

Any new case created from All New Case Types is assigned to a user, and is visible to the user in the My Tasks list.

Search cases

You can configure the search functionality, and enable or disable it per requirement. When search is configured, the Search icon displays at the top-right side of the screen.

Analytics

The analytics page displays the out-of-the-box analytics dashboards, which are displayed per your role(s) and permissions.

For an optimal portal experience, we recommend that each user has permissions for at least one analytics dashboard.

Portal history (V10.5 onwards)

You can view the portal history by clicking the History menu in the avatar menu at the top-right side of the screen.

The history tab displays the list of pages you have visited in the portal like cases you have worked on recently or analytics you have accessed, and provides you an easy access to these pages without having to navigate to them manually. You can click an item from the list to open the page in a new tab. You can also search for a particular case or analytic using the search option in the History tab.

Signatures (V10.5 onwards)

As an end user you can add your personalized signatures for email communications, and view a list of all the signatures you have previously added to your profile. You can use these signatures on the compose email window while sending an email from a case.

In the Signatures window, click + Add Signature.
In the Add Signature window, add the Signature Name and content.
NOTE
You can embed an image in the signature text by simple copy-paste.
Click Add.

In the Signatures window, choose from the Signature list, the default signature to be set. The chosen signature appears by default on the compose email window while you send an email from a case.

In the list, you can click > for a signature to preview the signature. You can also edit or delete a signature from the list.

Generic solution signatures are not included in the portal signatures, so you can set a default signature to a generic solution.
