Review/Approve Project Requests
Review A Project Request | Approve Or Reject A Project Request | Next Steps
Project Requests allow members of your internal team or your clients to initiate a request for work. A Project Request can operate as a collection of customized fields, or as a cover sheet to spec sheet(s). Or as a combination of the two.
Each project request form will also have a custom approval process defined for it in system setup. This approval process may involve several different people reviewing and adding additional information to the request, or simple email notification to team members of the existence or approval of a request.
It is best to focus on linking specification sheets to Project Requests, as all of the information contained in the specification sheet will be automatically copied to a New Project, should you open up a New Project directly from the Project Request.
