Services

The Services Kapp is designed to be a place for internal or external users you request things from teams within an organization. This is also where a user can go to review or follow-up on existing requests.

Form Type Reference

Form Types are used to group forms within Kinetic Request CE. The following Form Types have been defined within the Services app.

1. Service -- Any form that is requestable within the app. These forms will show up in Categories and submissions for these forms will be displayed in the My Requests area of the app.
2. Template -- Template forms can be used as a starting place for creating new services. Once you Clone a template, change the Type to Service and set it's status to Active for it to show up in the portal.
3. Utlitiy -- Utility Type forms are used for console activities and will not be displayed as Requestable or show up in the My Requests area of the app. Common utility forms are Comment to comment on something previously submitted...etc.

Attribute Reference

Attributes in Kinetic Request CE are like variables that can be tied to any object within the application. For example, a Kapp can have an attribute called "Icon" which dictates what Icon should display when referencing the Kapp within the User Interface. Below is a listing of all attributes and what they control within the Services Kapp.

Certain attributes (noted below with **) have been defined at the Space, Kapp and Form levels. This means, that if the attribute exists at the Form level, it will override the attribute value set at the Kapp level...etc. The Space is the "highest" level, and then "Kapp" then "Form".
