This streamlines the submission process and reduces workloads for live agents by using AI to infer answers and fill out dispute forms automatically. ## Workflow The following figure shows an example interaction between the Virtual Agent topic, the form data collector application, and Now LLM. \[Omitted image "disputes-intake-via-va-overview.png"\] Alt text: Interaction flow in Disputes intake via Virtual Agent between the Virtual Agent topic, form data collector application, and Now LLM. - The Disputes intake via Virtual Agent topic contains the logic of creating a dispute case and filling out the dispute questionnaire based on the conversation. If the answer cannot be determined from the chat responses, it will present a question in a clear and easy-to-understand way to the user. For more information, see [Customize the Virtual Agent topic in Disputes intake via Virtual Agent](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/financial-services-operations/dispute-management/customize-report-a-dispute-va-topic.md). - The form data collector takes the table name and view name as an input, and goes through each question on the form. While iterating over the questions, it asks the large language model \(LLM\) if the question is answered based on the chat history. If it is answered, it moves on to the next question. For more information, see [Form Data Collector](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/financial-services-operations/dispute-management/learn-about-the-form-data-collector.md). - The LLM helps to infer answers from customer responses to proactively fill out fields in the record, and rephrases questions from the dispute questionnaire. **Note:** Certain questions will not infer answers from Now LLM to ensure that the correct dispute category and reason code are determined from the conversation. See [Bypassed questions from LLM processing](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/financial-services-operations/dispute-management/learn-about-the-form-data-collector.md) for more information. - **[Submit a dispute case with Disputes intake via Virtual Agent](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/financial-services-operations/dispute-management/submit-dispute-case-disputes-intake-via-virtual-agent.md)** Create a new dispute case using the Disputes intake via Virtual Agent skill in the ServiceNow Otto for Financial Services Operations \(FSO\) application.
