Managing an agent-initiated Service Request

The submitted request will appear under My Open Requests.


 

Here, agents can:

  • View details: Click the request to review queries and information.
  • Download attachments: Use the ‘Download’ icon to access all the attached files.
  • Mark as Complete: Once the request is fulfilled, click Mark as Complete on behalf of the client to mark the request as done.
  • Reassign or Send Back: Click the ‘...’ ellipsis icon to send the request back to the request box or reassign it to another agent.




 

Admins can also leverage the Service Requests List Report to help users track and manage service requests more efficiently. This report provides an easy-to-read view of service requests and their statuses, improving oversight and responsiveness. 

The Service Request List Report requires a separate report setting to be enabled. To get access to this capability, get in touch with your Moxo team.
