Tips when asking the Digital Assistant a question

To get the most out of the STAAH Digital Assistant, follow these guidelines to ensure you quickly find accurate answers:

  • Clearly state your question: Type your questions clearly and concisely, exactly as you'd ask a human support agent.

  • Keep it short and specific: Short, precise questions help the Digital Assistant quickly identify and deliver the right information.

  • The Digital Assistant doesn't know your employees, dates, or calculations, so don't include these details in your question.

  • Type the exact error messages that you see.

  • Use familiar terminology: Use terms directly related to STAAH features, which helps the Digital Assistant match your questions accurately.

  • Natural language: Phrase your questions naturally. The Digital Assistant is trained to understand various ways of asking the same question.

  • Common topics: For routine issues like installation, passwords, or specific features, you ask directly about these topics.

  • Follow-up questions: If the initial response doesn't fully resolve your issue, ask a follow-up question or rephrase your query for further clarification.


What to Avoid When Using the Digital Assistant

  • Avoid one-word or very complex Questions: Single-word replies or overly complex questions are less effectively processed by the Digital Assistant.

  • Incorrect or unclear terminology: Use the correct terms related to STAAH. Incorrect terminology can hinder the Digital Assistant’s ability to provide accurate answers.

  • Excessively long queries: Limit your queries to fewer than 30 words. Long, continuous text can be too complicated for the Digital Assistant to interpret effectively.

  • Overly technical language: Avoid heavy technical jargon. Stick to straightforward, simple language for the best results.

  • For privacy reasons, don't attach any personal information, such as Pay Advices, to the question.
