Overview

The Disposition Case assignment involves choosing a recovery option for the chargeback, updating the case to include required information, or determining that recovery should not be pursued. 

The Disposition Case assignment is handled differently by firms, so review internal guidelines to understand what is needed in order to complete this task. Consider the following:

  • What are reason codes and what are some examples of each?

  • How to determine if recovery rights exist and when should recovery be pursued?

  • Do users deny disputes with no recovery rights?

  • What are the steps to complete a fraud investigation?

  • How and when should users notate the work they completed for this assignment?

  • Should QFD continue with recovery after the dispute has been written-off?

Other Actions

The Other Actions menu offers additional actions and information that allows the user to effectively work the task. 

Do Not Pursue Recovery

This action enables the user to write-off, deny, or assign the Final Investigation assignment to the selected dispute. 

Pend

This button allows the user to apply a wait status to all disputes with the Disposition Case assignment. The user may want to apply the wait status for a variety of reasons, including requesting information or documents from the account holder or needing to pause the assignments to complete an internal investigation.

Adjust Dispute Amount

This action enables the user to lower the dispute amount. The dispute amount may need to be adjusted when calculating account holder liability on fraud claims or after reviewing an itemized receipt on a non-fraud claim.  

Check for Merchant Credit

This action allows the user to check recent transaction activity for a refund. If a refund is found, the user can deny the dispute. 

Mark Assignment As Unworkable

Assignments that cannot be worked due to a technical issue can be marked as unworkable. This action will move the unworkable task to the Unworkable Assignment Group where leadership can review the scenario and take steps to resolve it. Technical errors that require the task to be marked as unworkable include QFD not reflecting correct data or when a user takes an action on the task, the action does not process and the assignment loops or is stuck.
