Service requests
How residents file requests and how staff resolve them.
Overview
Residents report issues from their unit, common areas, or amenities. Each request is categorized, assigned, and tracked to resolution. SLAs make sure nothing is forgotten.
Who uses this
- Residents create and follow their requests.
- Concierge triages.
- Manager assigns and monitors SLAs.
- Vendors receive assignments and update status.
Open the feature
Sidebar → Service requests.
Step-by-step
- Resident taps New request, picks a category (plumbing, HVAC, noise, etc.) and describes the issue with photos.
- The request enters the queue. Staff acknowledge within the configured SLA.
- Manager assigns to in-house staff or an external vendor.
- Updates and messages stay in the request thread.
- When complete, staff mark Resolved; the resident confirms or re-opens.
Settings & permissions
Admins configure categories, SLAs per category, default assignees, and whether photos are mandatory.
Multi-building tips

Reports & exports
Reports → Service requests shows open by category, SLA compliance, top units, and average resolution time.
Troubleshooting
- Wrong category. Any staff member can re-categorize.
- Resident reopened a closed ticket. It moves back to the assignee with the original history.
FAQ
