Onboarding - CSO Admin (ONB05US01)

User Story: Efficient Consumer Query & Validation Dashboard for CSO Admins

1. Problem Statement

CSO Admins face challenges in managing consumer queries, validating complaints, and tracking key operational metrics efficiently. Without a centralized and structured dashboard, they struggle with:

• Delayed complaint and service request validation, leading to unresolved consumer issues.
• Lack of real-time insights into pending work orders, unpaid bills, and high-priority validations.
• Manual effort in tracking consumer data, requiring multiple system interactions.

This inefficiency increases operational delays, reduces consumer satisfaction, and adds unnecessary workload to CSO Admins.

2.Who Are the Users Facing the Problem?

• CSO Admins: Responsible for overseeing consumer complaints, service requests, work orders, and billing validations.
• Support Teams: Rely on CSO Admins for quick resolution of consumer issues.

These users need a streamlined, real-time dashboard to enhance their efficiency.

3. Jobs To Be Done

As a CSO Admin, I am responsible for managing consumer queries, validating complaints, overseeing work orders, and tracking billing within SMART360. Previously, the lack of a centralized view led to inefficiencies, delayed responses, and increased manual effort in handling consumer-related issues.

To enhance my efficiency, I need a streamlined and comprehensive dashboard that provides a real-time overview of key operational metrics. This includes:

• Consumer Search & Details Panel – A quick lookup feature to retrieve consumer details, including active complaints and service requests.
• Validation Queue for Complaints & Service Requests – A structured workflow that enables me to review, approve, or reject pending consumer requests efficiently.
• Work Order Management – A real-time tracker for work orders, ensuring timely actions on service-related tasks.
• Billing Oversight – A dedicated section to monitor unpaid bills and take necessary actions to ensure revenue collection.

Additionally, I require real-time status updates and actionable insights that help me prioritize urgent tasks, reduce bottlenecks, and improve response times.

With this solution, I can focus on proactive consumer management rather than spending excessive time on manual tracking and issue resolution. This will enhance operational efficiency, improve service quality, and ensure seamless supervision of consumer operations.

4. Solution: The CSO Admin Dashboard introduces

• Consumer Search & Details Panel – Allows quick lookup of consumer data, including complaints and service requests.
• Validation Queue for Complaints & Service Requests – Enables CSO Admins to review, approve, or reject pending issues.
• Work Order & Billing Oversight – Displays ongoing work orders and unpaid bills for immediate attention.
• Actionable Insights & Metrics – A summarized view of key operational areas requiring intervention.

5. Major Steps Involved

• CSO Admin logs into the SMART360 platform and accesses the dashboard.
• The dashboard presents a summary of open consumer queries, pending validations, work orders, and unpaid bills.
• Admin searches for a consumer ID to view detailed complaint and service request history.
• The validation queue allows the Admin to approve or reject pending complaints and service requests.
• Work orders can be monitored, and quick actions can be taken based on urgency.
• Unpaid bills are displayed with options to mark payments as received.
• The Admin efficiently supervises consumer operations from a single view.

7. Business Rules for Tenant Admin Onboarding Dashboard

1.1. Consumer Search & Details Access

• The system must provide a search bar that allows CSO Admins to retrieve consumer details using a unique consumer ID.
• Once a consumer is selected, the system must display basic details, complaint history, service requests, and billing information.

2.1. Complaint & Service Request Validation

• All pending complaints and service requests must be listed in a validation queue for CSO Admin review.
• Admins should be able to approve or reject complaints and service requests with a single click.
• Approved complaints should trigger the work order creation process when necessary.
• If a complaint or request is rejected, the system must allow adding a rejection reason for transparency.

3.1. Work Order Tracking & Management

• The dashboard must display all active work orders, categorized by status (In Progress, Pending, Completed).
• CSO Admins should have quick access to view and update work order statuses.
• The system should highlight urgent work orders due within 24 hours for priority handling.

4.1. Billing Oversight & Payment Status

• The system must provide a summary of unpaid bills, including the total outstanding amount and overdue invoices.
• Overdue bills (30+ days) should be flagged for priority collection efforts.
• CSO Admins must have the ability to mark payments as received, updating the system in real time.

5.1. User Experience Enhancements

• The dashboard must display key metrics in a visually intuitive format, ensuring quick decision-making.
• Users should be able to filter and sort the validation queue based on complaint type, status, and submission date.

6.1. Data Validation & Security

• The system must enforce role-based access control (RBAC), ensuring only authorized CSO Admins can validate complaints or process payments.
• If an error occurs (e.g., missing information), the system must display a clear error message with resolution steps.

7.1. Performance & Efficiency Goals

• The dashboard must refresh real-time updates on validation counts, work orders, and unpaid bills.
• Pending validations requiring immediate attention should be prioritized and highlighted.
• The system should aim to reduce manual tracking efforts, improving operational efficiency.

8. Acceptance Criteria

• CSO Admins can successfully search for a consumer using a unique consumer ID and retrieve all related details.
• The dashboard must display real-time metrics, including open consumer queries, pending validations, work orders, and unpaid bills.
• The validation queue must list all pending complaints and service requests with options to approve, reject, or view details.
• The system must allow CSO Admins to filter and sort validation items based on complaint type, status, and submission date.
• Work orders must be categorized and displayed based on status, with urgent work orders highlighted for priority action.
• The billing section must display total unpaid bills, overdue payments, and payment status updates in real-time.
• CSO Admins must receive alerts for pending high-priority validations requiring immediate attention.
• The system should maintain a log of all validation actions (approval/rejection) for audit and compliance purposes.
• Any errors in complaint validation or work orders must trigger a clear error message with corrective guidance.
• The dashboard UI must follow accessibility guidelines, ensuring clarity and usability for all users.
