Interactive workflow demo

Job Dispatch + Work Orders

Watch incoming service requests get classified, completed with the right details, assigned by clear rules, and turned into visible work orders — including a missing address the system resolves by texting the customer back before dispatch.

Simulation mode Field Services
Thursday · 7:46 AM
Three service requests arrive before the dispatcher has finished coffee.

Two requests are ready. The third is missing a service address, so the system should ask the customer for it, wait for the reply, and only then create the work order.

Dispatch logic

How work gets completed + routed

  1. 01
    Read refrigerator request

    Capture issue, equipment, address, and preferred timing.

  2. 02
    Create first work order

    Package the complete request for the morning field queue.

  3. 03
    Read dishwasher request

    Preserve the customer’s after-1-PM availability constraint.

  4. 04
    Create second work order

    Route the request with the timing constraint attached.

  5. 05
    Read dryer request

    The appliance problem is understandable, but the request is missing the service location.

  6. 06
    Identify the recoverable gap

    An address is required for routing, but this does not need a dispatcher yet — it is a simple factual question for the customer.

  7. 07
    Text the customer for the address

    Send one specific clarification instead of handing an incomplete request to a person.

  8. 08
    Receive the customer reply

    Capture the service address and gate code from the response.

  9. 09
    Finish the dryer work order

    Merge the original dryer issue with the newly supplied location before assignment.

  10. 10
    Publish the dispatch-ready queue

    All three complete work orders move forward with the customer constraints attached.

Every action will be recorded here as it happens.

Follow the highlight across all four panels. The point is to show exactly where information moves, where rules apply, and where a human still owns the judgment call.

The point is the handoff, not the shiny robot

What actually changes

The automation is useful because the work moves cleanly from request to action — with less manual handling and clear human boundaries.

Before Manual handoffs
  • Requests arrive through multiple channels
  • Dispatch retypes details into work orders
  • Missing fields trigger callbacks or incomplete jobs
  • Technicians can receive assignments without route-critical context
After Connected handoffs
  • Requests are checked for dispatch-critical fields
  • Complete jobs become structured work orders automatically
  • Simple missing details can be requested directly from the customer
  • Jobs enter the field queue only after the information required to route them is present
