DASI HelpDeskPro User Instructions

Starting New Requests   

 

**These Instructions assume that you have completed the Steps in the DASI HelpDeskPro User Account Management Instructions.

 

Step 1)  Login to the DASI HelpDesk using your Username and Password

 

 

Step 2)  Users can set things like your Time Zone, Screen Refresh Interval and Change Passwords using the “MY SETTINGS” link.

 

 

Step 3)  To “ADD NEW REQUESTS” using the web, click the link in the upper right corner.

 

 

Step 4)  Fill in the Information in the form.  Use the “BROWSE” button at the bottom to attach files if necessary, then click “ADD REQUEST”.

 

 

Step 5)  The Main Screen now shows the new Request has been added.   

 

Request States

There are 4 ‘States’ your Request may be…..NEW, OPEN, INACTIVE and CLOSED.

NEW – Not yet responded to by a Technical Support Representative.

OPEN –Activity with the Customer In Process.  You will see these set to 'HOLD' when DASI is Waiting for the User to Respond.

INACTIVE – The issue has been Verified by our Support Staff and has been Submitted as an SR (Service Request) to SolidWorks Corporate.  We are Awaiting a Response.

CLOSED – Does not show on the Main Screen (Click “REQUEST ARCHIVE” to see them).  These are Requests that have been solved and are no longer active.  These may also be Requests that have been submitted to SolidWorks, have been verified by Development and have an SPR# (Software Performance Report) Assigned to them.  At this point, we at DASI have taken the Request as far as we can, so we Close it in our HelpDesk.  When Submitted to SolidWorks and tagged to the User, SolidWorks will now contact both parties once the SPR has been addressed.

 

 

Step 6)  Once your Request has been responded to by the DASI HelpDesk, you will see a Status Change and/or a ‘Red Flag’ to the right of the Request.  This indicated that Action is required by the User for this Request.

 

 

You can click “REQUEST ARCHIVE” to see your Closed Requests

 

 

This will show the Time and Date it was Closed.  If you Add a New Response to a Closed Request, the Request will be set back to OPEN and will again appear on the Main Screen.

 

 

You can use Keyword Searches to find Requests

 

The Knowledge Base is filled with Tips and Suggestions compiled by the DASI HelpDesk staff.  This database also has a Search tool and is constantly being updated.
