CBC-PROC-199
Version 1
last review date: July 2019
Work Requests represent a request for CBC to engage a technician to perform work. Work Requests are often raised in response to a fault on a piece of equipment / asset maintained by CBC. Only when a Work Request is approved by the Client and converted to a Work Order by CBC will a technician be despatched to address the request.
Users who can approve a Work Request are governed by Contract Settings, and your role. If you are not assigned to a Contract that allows you to approve a Work Request, you may find that certain functions will not be available to you.
