The queue functionality within Request Management allows requests to be grouped together into specific queues based on spaces, categories and statuses.
These Queues are a way to group management of requests for example, you could have a queue for Building A and a queue for Building B with different request managers/assignees, or you might have a cleaning queue with all cleaning categories in a building.
...
When creating a new category, you will be required to add the category to an existing queue. Ensure the queue you would like to add the category to is set up beforehand.
To add a category to a queue:
Open Request Management and click Settings from the top left hand corner.
Navigate to the Categories tab
Select Add Category from the left-hand corner
Add your chosen icon, category name, and type (if applicable). Then select the building(s) this category should be available at.
Next, select the queue from the drop-down list.
Click Next: Add Subcategories, and add the relevant subcategories, if applicable.
Select Add Category to save your changes.
