How to manage tickets in the mobile app

When opening the Dalux FM app you will see the work order tab. At the top of this tab are the inboxes for tickets.

My tickets and Team tickets will always be visible, and depending on permissions you might also see Other teams’ tickets.

How to assign tickets

If you need to assign or reassign tickets, it is done by opening an inbox and finding the ticket - either manually in the list view or by searching for it.

Open the ticket and click the -icon in the top right corner.

In the allocation area, click Team or Responsible for the ticket. This will open a window, where a different responsible can be selected.

When done you can save the changes by pressing 'Save' in the top corner.

This will move the ticket to the inbox of the selected responsible. Changes to tickets are always logged in the history and shown at the bottom of the ticket.

How to make tickets into work orders

If a ticket needs to be made into a work order, this is done by:

Open the ticket and press  Create as work order.

You can then review the work order and change or add information as needed.

Make sure to double-check that you have selected the right responsible person and set the desired deadline.

When you are done, press 'Save' in the top right corner, to create the work order. This will move the ticket to the work order inboxes of the selected responsible.

You can also link tickets to existing work orders. This is done  by pressing:

'Add to work order' Select a work order.

This is helpful for related tickets. When multiple tickets are linked to the same work order, all reporters will be notified of status changes.

How to communicate with reporters

If a ticket requires more information from the reporter, it is possible to message the reporter. 

Open the ticket and press  Send message to reporter.

This will send an email to the reporter and the message is logged on the ticket.

How to reject tickets

If a ticket needs to be rejected it can be done by: 

Open the ticket and press  Reject HelpDesk.

Before sending the rejection, it is possible to enter a message which will be sent to a reporter. An internal message can also be entered, which will not be visible to the reporter.

How to create tickets

Ideally, tickets are submitted using the Dalux FM HelpDesk app or HelpDesk portal.

You can read more about sending tickets in the Dalux FM HelpDesk App here: How to send Tickets using the HelpDesk mobile app.

If needed new tickets can be created in the Dalux FM app. This can be done in two ways:

  • Scan a QR code generated from a room or asset
  • Selecting a location either on the map view or a floor plan/drawing

When scanning a QR code with the -icon from the work order tab, the room will open, and a new ticket can be created by pressing the -icon and then selecting 'Create ticket' from the pop-up.

To create tickets from Locations, press on the map or a drawing/floor plan and then press Create. Then select 'Ticket' from the new menu.

Either method will bring you to the 'Create ticket' screen.

The placement data will be automatically added based on your selection. You can then select a topic and fill out the required information. 

Please note, that when creating a ticket this way, you will be set as the reporter of the ticket.
