Purpose

Allow chargeback team members to review all chargeback tasks for their assigned billing customers.

Overview

Use Chargeback Task Management to display chargeback tasks for billing customers. Every chargeback represents a single task. Billing customers are filtered based on the chargeback teams to which you are assigned. If you are responsible for resolving chargebacks, you can use Chargeback Task Management to perform most of your chargeback tasks during the day.

Example Billing customer A is in chargeback team X, billing customer B is in chargeback team Y, and billing customer C is in chargeback team Z. If you are assigned to teams X and Z, then only customer A and customer C chargeback tasks display for you.

For database information for this window, see Chargeback Task Management Database Information.
