Location issues

Our school district has dozens of custodians, including many who rove between schools. Often, these custodians submit work orders for schools they are not permanently assigned to in IIQ. Currently, they need to remember to use the “Edit Location” option, but this has proven challenging for many of them.

Is there a way to make location selection more prominent—perhaps within the main work order entry area—so it’s easier for custodians to choose the correct site when submitting a ticket?

I’m new to our district and learning all about IIQ. I’ve recently been designated as the point of contact for IIQ within our facilities team, and this issue has come up several times. So far, I haven’t found a solution in any of the threads I’ve reviewed.

Any tips, best practices, or configuration options would be greatly appreciated!

@gmorales 267f729 beaverton Thank you for submitting your question to our community! 😄 

This is a hot topic because we cannot assign multiple locations within iiQ. One way is training your team to ensure they check that location. Another way I suggest is to add an informational (or required) Custom Field to those ticket types they typically submit, adding that field that either reminds them to check the location OR add a required field that asks “did you update the location?” is another way I have seen this done. 

Just some of my first thoughts!
