Using Service Requests from the Client Account

Modified on Wed, 11 Dec at 10:18 AM

When clients use their Client Portal to request services online, they are not added to the live schedule until you review and approve the requests. You can look at one client's service requests from their Client Account in Service Requests. If enabled, you can also view/hide any Client Notes sent in from a clients service request. Client Notes are copied to Staff Notes which can be overwritten.

If duplicated Service Requests are a problem for your business, switching on notify admins of potential scheduling conflicts in Advanced Service Request settings will help to reduce this issue by providing warnings to admins of potential duplicates. 


Note: From the Client's Service Requests, you can view all Requests from that client that have not been scheduled. You have the same functionality as the main Service Requests Tab, such as:
