Reports and tasks Basic

Create and follow your first report

A report represents a request, incident, or task. On creation it receives a unique number within the organization and starts a history that follows its entire lifecycle.

Availability: any active organization member; customer context is shown only in Company mode. Level: Basic.

What it is for

It lets you describe the need, classify priority, relate the work to a customer or asset, and begin tracking it.

Before you start

The organization must have at least one active report type and one active urgency level. New workspaces already include initial catalogs. If they are missing, an administrator must configure them before Create report becomes available.

Create the report

  1. Open Reports.
  2. Choose New report.
  3. Enter a clear subject from 5 to 160 characters.
  4. Select type and urgency.
  5. In Company mode, select a customer company and one of its contacts when applicable.
  6. Review assigned workstations or units that appear preselected. You can remove them or mark affected components, including a position without a registered component.
  7. Add details and files if they help explain the case.
  8. Confirm Create report.

ReportArea then opens the new report detail and shows its number.

What happens next

  • In Professional, the job is In progress and automatically assigned to its creator. It does not use lines or internal transfers.
  • In Company, it is Open and unassigned in the entry line selected by the configured chain. Staff in that line can take it and an administrator can assign it.
  • Configured members may receive notifications according to their preferences.
  • Subject, details, customer, and selected assets become part of the report context.

Rules and effects

  • Type and urgency must be active and belong to the organization.
  • A contact can be selected only together with its customer company.
  • A workstation or unit must be active, visible to the creator, and compatible with the selected customer.
  • Your assigned workstations or units are an editable suggestion, not a requirement.
  • Attachments are private and are served only to people authorized to view the report.
