Essential to include case numbers - make sure that ICs provide those to PMs when asking for escalations. PMs need to ensure IC has pinged the consultant asking for a status update before escalating.
Escalations can go into 2 categories: it’s urgent, or there’s a lack of communication.
SalesForce case OR Basecamp post? Please share this with your local implementation teams:
If it’s a general question, post on BC
If it’s problem, open a SF case
Also no need to double dip - if you have a SF case first, that’s all ExL needs (no need to additionally post on BC)

Batch Jobs Benchmarks:
Action: Ex Libris will provide a benchmark so that UCs have some guidelines on expected runtimes. Ex Libris will need to do some research first, but when can UCs expect to receive that?
(8/26) Marina following up with HQ regarding the batch jobs runtime benchmark explanation
[8/31] Chaim still working on details
Related update 9/13 - Several of the cases about slow jobs (import jobs) were actually caused by the type of jobs being run - that required intervention from the campus due to certain settings being utilized - which caused delays for the campuses and their jobs.
This benchmark work is still in process - however due to the complexities of it, it will take longer than expected and I do not have an ETA. Will update you when I have more information.
Update 9/23: RE cases for UCLA, Santa Cruz and small jobs - (initializing, running, finalizing)
Because the job queue takes into account all jobs running on the server, there can be delays in small jobs due to what else is being processed on NA07, not just on their IZ.
The EXL Training team does not anticipate anyone else joining the cycle (based on Switch to Support schedules and time zones). Do note though that your KAP cycle will include the same sessions and content EXL delivers to all KAP attendees.
