Overview of Oracle iSupport
What is Oracle iSupport?
Oracle iSupport is a simple, online facility that enables Red Rock’s Support Customers to create, view, update, and resolve Service Requests via the internet.
The iSupport Process for Red Rock Customers
Red Rock’s Support Customers can now follow a simple self-service process to create, view, update and resolve their Service Requests through the new web based iSupport system.
The new process will cover the following steps:-
1. Provision of username/password and User Manual
Red Rock Support will provide the username details for accessing iSupport via email. A separate email will be sent with the password and logging in information, including the URL.
2. Login to Red Rock iSupport
Red Rock Support Customers can log into Red Rock’s iSupport page via the internet, using the username/password provided.
Only nominated users will be able to access iSupport. Any additional users requiring access will need to be approved internally, and requested via the client’s Account Manager.
3. Raise Service Request
Service Requests can be created using iSupport and a Service Request Number will be generated automatically.
4. Service Request Creation Email Notification
When a Service Request is raised, iSupport automatically sends an email to the Support Customer’s email address that acknowledges the Service Request along with the Service Request Number and Service Request details.
5. Automatic Service Request Assignment
Each time a Service Request is created, iSupport automatically assigns the Service Request to Red Rock Support for actioning.
6. Service Request Review and Updates
Support Customers can view the status and progress of their Service Request via iSupport along with the ability to make updates for further information if needed.
7. Service Request Resolution
Support Customers also have the capability to close the Request (set status to Resolved) via iSupport.
