Service Requests
The Service requests function allows you to review service requests that have been raised for the purposes of investigating the issue and eventually actioning that request. This functionality is not intended to replace existing job / work request processes, but to capture the request and provide sufficient information so that it can be migrate to other systems (either within Civica Authority or another system). Still, because the service request originated from the customer via the mobile application, it is important that the completion of that request is recorded in the system with the response sent back to the customer.
