Cirrus8 - Work Requests

Cirrus8 users can now create "On The Go" Maintenance with Work Requests from PIM!

Creating a new Work Request can now be done directly from PIM, together with a photo from the inspection area, and uploaded into CirrusFM.

For properties where you need to create a Work Request, you can select a photo and then raise a new Work Request against it, complete some details, and then upload it to CirrusFM for further action.

Submitting Work Requests is only available for those inspections that have been imported from Cirrus8 and require a network connection. 

If you have not yet set up the integration between PIM and Cirrus8 on your device, refer to our Cirrus8 Integration Guide.
