For intelligent and automated routing of complex case types based on free text descriptions, integrating with a Natural Language Processing (NLP) system is the most effective solution. NLP can analyze the free text, understand the context, and categorize the cases based on the content, enabling automated and accurate routing.

NLP System Integration Overview:

NLP systems can process and understand human language in text form, identifying key phrases, sentiments, and categories.

By integrating with an NLP service, Appian can automatically route cases to the appropriate department or user based on the analysis of the text provided by external users.

This approach reduces the need for manual review and ensures that cases are handled efficiently and accurately.

Why Not Other Options?:

A. Manual Review Task: This does not automate the process and relies on human intervention, which can be time-consuming and prone to error.

B. Find Functions for Keyword Search: This approach is limited to exact matches and lacks the sophistication needed to understand complex language and context.

C. Translation Service Integration: While useful for language translation, it does not offer the categorization and routing capabilities needed for this use case.
