The intelliHR knowledge base, by default, offers the option for you as an end-user to submit requests. End-users who submit requests can also manage their support requests in the customer portal. This article describes the default options for submitting requests and tracking requests in the customer portal on the knowledge base.
This article covers:
- Submitting a support request
- Updating a support request in My Activities with a comment, CC or organization
- Tracking your support requests
- Tracking your organization's support requests
- Marking a request as solved
- Creating a follow-up to a solved request
Submitting a support request
You can submit requests using the Submit Request button on our knowledge base. Currently, you are not required to sign in to submit support requests; however, there are benefits to signing in such as visibility of all your logged tickets and for system administrators the ability to see all requests submitted by your organization.
To submit a support request in the knowledge base
- In the Knowledge Base, click Submit a request at the top of the page.
- You can add an email address to copy a user on the ticket.
To copy multiple users, use a comma to separate each email address.
- Enter a subject and description of the problem.
As you enter a subject, a list of suggested articles in the knowledge base appears. You can click one of the articles instead of submitting the request if these articles resolve your issue.
- If you belong to multiple organizations, select the organization for this support request.
- Add any attachments.
The file size limit is 20 MB.
