To Process a maintenance work order:

  • Select  a service request to process from the Service Requests for Review portlet
  • Take Ownership, this will let everyone else in Dispatch know that you are working on this Service Request.  If you see someone else's name in the owner field, go home and select another service request.

  • Review the details and any attachments on the service request.  If anything is missing or unclear, contact the requester for clarification or more information. 
  • Ensure the location is correct.  This is especially important for spaces owned by Auxiliaries.  The billing for Housing and Dining is determined by the location in a Maintenance Service SR/WO.
  • Update any information as needed.
  • Create the Work Order and then go to the new Work Order
