Request sequence

Shop customers can request, renew, and unsubscribe products as soon as an IT Shop solution is set up. Use the Web Portal to do this. Furthermore, requests, and cancellations are approved in the Web Portal. You can make an overview of pending and closed requests for yourself. You can also find an overview of pending and closed requests in the Manager The status of pending requests is checked regularly by the DBQueue Processor. The review is started by the IT Shop check schedule.

Requests can have a limited time period, which means the requested product assignment is only valid with the validity period.

General request sequence

  1. A customer places a request in the Web Portal for:

    1. A product.

      - OR -

    2. Membership of a hierarchical role.

      - OR -

    3. The assignment of a company resource to a hierarchical role.

  2. The request goes through the assigned approval process.

  3. If the request has been granted approval and the Valid from date has been reached:

    1. The product is assigned to the customer. The company resource associated with the product is assigned indirectly to the customer.

      - OR -

    2. The customer becomes a secondary member of the hierarchical role.

      - OR -

    3. The company resource is assigned to the hierarchical role.
