receives values for one or more of: aggravation score values, evaporation period values, repeat issue penalty values and overage penalties corresponding to the topic category or the subtopic;
receives internal notes and campaign notes which are linked to one or more of the topic category and the subtopic;
monitors one or more channels of communication between one or more end users and one or more entities for one or more communications;
analyzes in response to the monitoring the one or more communications between at least one end user of the one or more end users and at least one entity of the one or more entities, to identify one or more topic categories or one or more subtopics that characterize the one or more communications;
scores the one or more communications based on, at least in part, the values to generate an overall score characterizing the one or more communications; and
generates a status of the one or more communications based on applying a predetermined range to the overall score.
9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the computer further:
receives a new topic category and one or more parameters of the new topic category.
10. The system of claim 8 , wherein the computer further:
receives a selection to sort topic categories and subtopics according to one or more of:
alphabetically, date created and date modified.
11. The system of claim 8 , wherein the computer further:
receives a selection to determine points corresponding to a particular topic category or subtopic, wherein the points correspond to one or more penalties assessed when a topic category or subtopic occur in a monitored communication.
12. The system of claim 8 , wherein the computer further:
receives a selection to include a wiki article in tickets related to a particular topic category or subtopic.
13. The system of claim 8 , wherein the computer further:
adds or subtracts penalty points corresponding to the score when a time period has elapsed after a communication, wherein the penalty points and the adds or subtracts correspond to a particular topic category or a particular subtopic.
14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the computer further:
receives an entry of a forgiveness period corresponding to a time period after which the adding or subtracting of the penalty points are reversed.
