The Facility Manager may configure FacilityBot to allow Requestors to make Service Requests through WhatsApp. Service requests are requests that require a response by the Facility Manager but are not faults. These may be soft services such as Event Management, Access Card replacements, or Reception requests. Service Requests forms can be configured by the Facility Manager to accept other fields beyond the fields to report a fault.
The Facility Manager is able to switch off the Service Request feature. In this case, Requestors for that building will not be able to access this feature.
