Service Drop-Off Workflow


Guides a customer intending to drop off a device for service. The portal will place the customer in the employee-facing customer queue ordered by check in time. Basic information about the customer and his/her device is also collected in this process.


Sales Workflow


Guides a customer intending to speak to a sales representative. The portal will place the customer in the employee-facing customer queue ordered by check in time. Basic information about the customer is collected in this process.
Note: A customer may opt to skip the customer lookup (email/phone) and simply enter their first and last name to be immediately placed into the queue.


Service Pick-Up Workflow


Guides a customer intending to pick up a device that was dropped off for service. The portal will place the customer in the employee-facing customer queue ordered by check in time. The customer will be required to enter either their email or phone number to be placed into the queue.
