Overview

The Complaint Log provides a single register for all complaints received by your organisation. You can record new complaints, assign them to the appropriate team, categorise them for regulatory reporting, and track their progress through to resolution. This page helps you meet your complaint-handling obligations and identify recurring themes.

How to use it

Viewing complaints

The log presents all complaints in a structured table. Each row shows a summary of the complaint record:

  • Complaint Title — The name or summary of the complaint, followed by its unique reference (e.g. “etsertwer1 (CP1)”).
  • Category — The complaint classification (e.g. Category 1, Category 2) as defined by your organisation’s complaint taxonomy.
  • Team — The team responsible for handling the complaint.
  • Score — The severity or priority score. Shows TBC if the complaint has not yet been assessed.

Filtering and searching

Use the Business Unit, Team, and Entity dropdowns at the top of the page to focus on complaints within a specific part of your organisation. The filter row beneath the column headers allows you to apply column-specific filters. Type into the search box to find a complaint by title or reference number.

Logging a new complaint

Click the + Add New button to open the complaint creation form. You will need to provide the complaint details, select a category, and assign it to the appropriate team.

Pagination

Navigate through the complaint list using the pagination controls at the bottom of the table.

Tips & Tricks

Regularly review complaints with a TBC score to ensure they are assessed promptly. Unscored complaints can create blind spots in your reporting.
Complaint categories are configurable. If you need to add or modify categories, ask your administrator to update them in Configuration under the Complaints tab.
Some complaint categories may trigger regulatory reporting obligations (e.g. FCA complaint returns). Make sure each complaint is correctly categorised at the point of entry.
For related workflows, see Risk Incidents Log for incidents that may originate from complaints, and Reporting Calendar for scheduled regulatory returns.
