Dispute invoice issues such as quantity discrepancies in a guided conversational flow using Now Assist Virtual Assistant from the Business Portal, without needing to contact support.

## Vorbereitungen

* Now Assist for Order Management (sn_now_assist_om)
* Invoice Case Self Service (sn_invoice_case_ss)

Role required: sn_customerservice.customer

## Warum und wann dieser Vorgang ausgeführt wird

When you describe your issue on the Now Assist panel, the AI agent validates the dispute using an Available-to-Promise (ATP) API call and presents resolution options, such as a credit note or fulfillment of outstanding items.

If you express dissatisfaction or explicitly request human assistance at any point,
the AI agent transfers the conversation to a human agent.

## Prozedur

1. Log in to the Business Portal.
2. Select the Now Assist icon to launch the Now Assist chat panel.  
   Now Assist uses the context of the current page to tailor its responses and offer support. For example, launching it from an invoice details page offers help in the context of that invoice.
3. In natural language, describe the invoice issue you want to dispute.  
   For example, enter <kbd class="ph userinput">I want to dispute an invoice for incorrect quantity</kbd>.  
   A list of invoices related to your account is displayed.
4. If the invoice you want to dispute is listed, confirm by responding affirmatively.  
   For example, select Proceed with ARINV0001003.  
   Alternatively, you can provide a different invoice number or enter product name or invoice date to help identify your invoice.  
   The AI agent validates and fetches the invoice details along with the invoice lines.
5. Select the invoice line you want to dispute.  
   The AI agent validates the invoice line details and displays the following information:
   * Invoice line number
   * Product
   * Quantity
   {#dispute-invoice-issues-now-assist__ul_wwt_5vl_k3c}
6. If the invoice line you want to dispute is correct, select Yes.
7. Describe the issue when prompted.  
   For example, to dispute quantity mismatch, you can enter <kbd class="ph userinput">I ordered 10 items, but received only 9</kbd>.  
   The AI agent validates the dispute by triggering an ATP API call. Depending on the outcome, one of the following happens:
   * Validated: An invoice case is created with the state set to Work in Progress and the agent presents resolution options for the quantity discrepancy. You also receive an email notification with the case details.
   * Not validated: The agent notifies you that the dispute could not be confirmed and prompts you to try a different invoice. If you disagree with the outcome, you can request to chat with a human agent.
   {#dispute-invoice-issues-now-assist__ul_p2b_kbq_k3c}
8. If the dispute is validated, select a resolution option for the quantity discrepancy.

   | Option | Description |
   | Receive a credit note for the missing quantity | Request a credit for the disputed quantity |
   | Receive or order the remaining quantity | Request delivery of the remaining items |
   |-|-|

   {#dispute-invoice-issues-now-assist__choicetable_ddq_pbq_k3c}  
   If you are not satisfied with the resolution options, you can request to be transferred to a human agent. The AI agent uses sentiment analysis to detect dissatisfaction. You can also explicitly ask to chat with a human agent. For example, you can enter <kbd class="ph userinput">I'd like to speak with an agent</kbd>.  
   Depending on the resolution option you select, a credit note is issued or an order for the outstanding items is created. The invoice case state is updated to Closed.
