Service Request Overview Page

On the Service Request List page, if you click a service request Reference Number, the Service Request Overview page is displayed. This page displays related information about the selected service request.

Here's an overview of the different sections of an individual service request (SR) record and what you can do. The individual record is divided into three sections:
  • Summary (callout 1 in the screenshot)
  • Action Bar (callout 2)
  • Panels with key information (callout 3)

Note: You can access the Action Bar using the keyboard shortcut Alt+A for Windows PC and Control+A for Mac.

  • Enter Filter to filter out what you want to review in activities.
  • Search activities by keyword.
  • Enter Compose to view a list of message types that you can use to send messages to customers or team members.
  • Take other actions. What actions are available depends on what you can do with the record and your permissions.

Start typing an action or the name of a field you want to update and select what you want to do from the list of suggestions. To make suggestions, the Action Bar looks for key verbs and names of objects and fields.

Panels with key information.

Panels display up to five of the most recently updated items related to the record, including the most recent and pending activities.

Which panels you see depends on the type of record and application administrator setup. Not all panels are visible at the same time, and not all information has its own panel.

  • The Activities panel displays up to five future and past activities.
  • The Problem panel is always visible.
  • The Solution panel is only visible if there's solution data in there. If there's no solution data, this panel isn't displayed.

You must click the link at the bottom of each panel to see all relevant information.

To see all of the panels on a record:

  • Swipe on a touch screen.
  • Use the wheel of your mouse.
  • Use the Tab key.

Alternatively, enter show in the Action Bar to see a list of all information you can view.
