  • On the Edit Condition pane on the right, enter a Name for the condition.

  • Under Conditions Applies To "Universal Case", select Case Queue from the Condition dropdown and select the desired queue from the corresponding field, if you want sample cases from a particular queue.

  • Number - Cases will be picked randomly from a defined sample set size. For example, if you select the Number of assets to sample from set as 100 and Sample Set Size as 10 then 10 cases will be picked from a sample of 100 cases.

  • Number per hour - Cases will be picked randomly from a defined sample set size every hour. For example, if you select the Number of assets to sample as 10 then 10 cases will be picked randomly every hour.

  • Number per day - Cases will be picked randomly from a defined sample set size every day. For example, if you select the Number of assets to sample as 50 then 50 cases will be picked randomly every day.

  • Number per week - Cases will be picked randomly from a defined sample set size every week. Note that Monday 00:00 is considered the start of the week. For example, if you select the Number of assets to sample as 100 then 100 cases will be picked randomly every week.

  • Number per month - Cases will be picked randomly from a defined sample set size every month. For example, if you select the Number of assets to sample as 200 then 200 cases will be picked randomly every month.

Also, select the Sampling Category as All to sample the cases from all the cases or Per User to sample the cases from cases assigned per user.

You can add the desired action such as adding a note, assigning to users or queues, etc. For example, under Actions To "Universal case", select Add to Case Queue from the Action dropdown and select the desired queue from the Value dropdown to add the sampled cases to a particular queue.
