Work Order
ShareCRM Work Order Module
The Work Order module in ShareCRM enables users to quickly view historical work orders and related Account/Contact information when creating new work orders. Service managers can monitor work order status in real-time, track issue resolution, and facilitate cross-department collaboration.
I. Business Use Case Examples
For business executives:
Externally: Understand customer feedback and product reputation, identifying areas needing improvement.
Internally: Gain visibility into after-sales service costs.
For service managers:
Centralize customer inquiries from multiple channels using work orders for unified tracking and management.
For service specialists:
Quickly identify assigned tasks and pending work orders while accessing customer profiles and historical work orders during resolution.
