MANAGE ALL REQUESTS FOR USER#
The Manage All Requests for User (IERQ) screen works like an email client with an Inbox, Outbox, and Archived requests section; this provides a familiar interface for users and encourages them to use requests more often in their daily work. A menu has been added to the form toolbar to make it easier for users to create new requests for a subject, as well as provide the convenience of viewing all relevant requests. Embedded forms which show the context of each request will be visible on IERQ such that when a user is viewing outstanding requests; all information is available on IERQ and opening other screens to understand the source of the request is no longer necessary.
Although requests are similar to email, there is no similar way to respond to a request; requests should not be replied to with another request. Instead, a user can add an activity to the current request and as long as the request remains open, the sender can see it and all activities in the Outbox of their IERQ screen
A user can complete or deny requests assigned to them. If a request is not assigned to them, then at most they can add an activity to the request for others to see.
The Manage All Requests for User (IERQ) screen has been designed to make it function more like an email client.
There are three tabs in IERQ:
- Inbox tab where incoming requests are received
- Outbox tab where new requests can be created and sent to an employee
- Archived tab where all completed or canceled requests are stored.
The definition data for the Manage All Requests for User screen is stored in the P2K_AM_REQUESTS and P2K_AM_REQUEST_ACTIVITIES tables.
Inbox #
The Inbox:- Contains all requests received by the user which are still ‘open’.
- Provides the ability to complete or deny requests, as well as the ability to change the status from New to In Progress.
- Users can respond to a request by adding activities, they would not respond by sending another request.
- If the request type was defined as requiring action the Action Required toggle will be checked.
- The bottom portion of the screen contains two tabs; Context and Activities. o The Context tab will display an embedded form for the request if one has been defined in IMRT. o The Activities tab is a view of all activities for the request. The date the activity was added, by whom, the type of activity and the text of the activity can all be seen in this tab.
