Tip

Field & Safety → Requests (Requests) is where customer and field requests (erect, modify, dismantle, delivery, pick-up, inspection, repair) are triaged. Use Board (columns) or List. A red number on the menu counts the New ones. The statuses are: Dispatch is notified and the customer gets a "We received your request" message. You must choose a job or customer and write a description, otherwise: "Choose a job or customer and describe the request". An Erect request creates a scaffold in status Requested. Requests of the types set in the approval settings (by default Erect and Modify) go through an approval chain, shown in the Approval card (for example "Paso 1 de 3"). The default steps are Customer approver → Arkon One estimate → Final approval.
