Request Closure (process SO 3.6)

Once the Service Request activities are completed, the Financial Management process might be involved for fulfillment cost billing. When the closure action happens, request categorization should be checked and confirmed. When a request is closed, Service Desk will be notified of the completion status, and the Service Desk will communicate with User or Requester on the fulfillment result. User satisfaction survey can also be carried out for some requests.

The following user role can perform Request Closure:

Request Coordinator

Details for this process can be seen in the following figure and table.

The Request Closure workflow is illustrated in the following figure:
