Designating dispatcher notification email addresses in Signature Agent

When working with service requests that are generated from ServiceChannel, there may be instances when the service request is updated on the ServiceChannel side that also updates the service request. The notifications are emailed to the Dispatcher Email Address(es) that were marked in Signature Agent.

In Schedule, there are two occasions when emails will be sent to the dispatcher email group:

  • Change notification: If the scheduled date, scheduled time, priority, and/or NTE amount has changed.
  • Cancellation notification: The service request was canceled.

To designate the email address(es) to receive the notifications:

  1. In Signature Agent, on the Home tab, choose the company.
  2. Choose Properties.
  3. On the Dispatcher Email tab, mark the email address checkbox(es) that the notifications will be sent to.

  4. Choose OK.

Example of Change Communication Notification

The change communication is sent if the Scheduled Date, Scheduled Time, Priority, and/or NTE amount has changed on the service request. The email lists all three original and current values, regardless of what value may have changed.

Example of Cancellation Change Communication

If a service request is canceled through the service aggregator, the service request will no longer display in the Service Request window. The dispatcher distribution group will receive the following notification. If a service call has been created, this will need to be manually updated in Signature.
