### Step 4 - Case Tracking Setup (Post-Call Wrap-Up Data Entry Form)&#x20;

After Call End, the agent can fill out a Wrap-up form and call outcomes such as Resolved, Follow-up, Transfer, Escalated, or any data.

This information helps the contact center and its management to understand the nature of customer inquiries, measure the effectiveness of support, and identify areas for improvement.
