Maintenance Request

Introduction

This form is a simple entry definition intended to provide order and organization in addressing maintenance issues in the organization. With no workflow required you can quickly transform any folder in Novell Vibe into a maintenance request repository. We recommend using filters to quickly organize the requests from this definition.

DESCRIPTION:

The Maintenance Request form was developed through work with small business and education. As-is, the form works best in small organizations. The form definition includes a variety of areas for the required maintenance. In a large organization these distinctions may be too general.

Set up requires a couple more steps than the most basic form deployment.

  1. Configuring the folder with your new definition
  2. Configure the folder columns to display pertinent information (Figure 2)
  3. Create folder filters to quickly sort through the information in the form

Not all users are familiar with the ins and outs of Novell Vibe. To learn more about configuring definitions in folders please visit the documentation here.
