This walks one fault through the whole system. By the end you will have triaged a request, opened a work order, assigned it, and closed it — which is the loop the rest of the product hangs off.

Sign in

Triage a reported fault

Go to Work → Requests. This is the inbox of things people have reported. Select one and the request opens in a panel beside the list, so you can work down a queue without navigating back and forth.The work request inbox with a request open beside itA request you intend to act on becomes a job: click Convert to work order. One that is not worth doing gets Reject. The buttons you see come from your organisation’s own request lifecycle, so a missing button means your configuration does not allow that move from here.More: work requests.

Open the work order

Converting lands you on the job. Work → Work Orders lists everything open, with views along the top for Unassigned, Due today, Overdue, SLA breached, Critical and each of your on-hold states.The work order list with its saved viewsOpen one and you get the whole picture — what it is, who it is on, what it needs, what it has cost, and what has happened to it.A work order detail screenMore: inside a work order.

Check it can actually be done

Open the Readiness tab. It lists what the job still needs — parts not in stock, a tool that is out or out of calibration, a skill or certification nobody available holds, a vendor who has not confirmed.The readiness tab listing what a job is short ofSending somebody to a job that is short of a part is how a shift gets wasted. Clear the shortages first, or accept them knowingly.

Put somebody on it

Go to Work → Dispatch. Jobs sit in columns by state; technicians are in the rail on the right. Drag a job onto a person.The dispatch board with jobs in columns and technicians in a railDropping does not assign. It shows you what would happen — travel time and arrival, both service-level promises, skills, certification, parts, tools, double bookings and workload — and then you decide.More: the dispatch board.

Watch it get done, then close it

The technician picks the job up on the field app, works through it at the machine, and records hours, parts and readings as they go — offline if there is no signal.A job open on the field appWhen the work is finished the job reaches Completed, and closing it records the resolution. A closed job is what the reliability figures are computed from.The full state list: the work order lifecycle.
