Including the following information in your problem description will significantly improve your search results.
Incident Solution Matching is the result of a highly sophisticated technology. On the first view, you will still use the same search environment or incident creation form. However, performance and quality of answers are improved considerably by this new technology and you should get answers much faster with a much higher relevance to your questions.
Incident Solution Matching is available for all SAP products.
Because the Incident Solution Matching automatically identifies and ranks solutions according to their semantic relevance based on incident data. The more detailed and concise information you provide, the more matching results you will get.
The Incident Solution Matching uses artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning for improved results by learning from past incidents, so the more you use it, the more relevant it becomes.

More use cases based on artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies are planned for the future and will help further improve performance and customer experience.
