Journey Timeline: Optimizing the Customer Experience - App V5
Last Updated:What's in this article?
You must proactively manage Visibility Settings to differentiate between back-end processing and the customer-facing narrative.
Internal vs. Customer-Visible Actions
- Internal Actions: Used for sensitive processes.
- Example (Credit Check): The Team sees full financial data, risk tools, and credit scores. The Customer sees nothing, as this is a background verification.
- Customer-Visible Actions: These appear on the timeline. Always use "Customer-First" naming. Instead of "Risk_Validation_Sync," use "Reviewing your application."
Customer Timeline View
The timeline provides a visual progress tracker for the customer using status icons:
- Completed: Application Submitted ("Thank you!")
- In Progress: Application Review ("We are checking your details.")
- Pending: Account Setup ("This will begin once approved.")
