Current campus work order system overhauled, welcomes improvements

In an email sent out to the Elizabethtown College community by Campus News Monday, March 11, Facilities Management announced that during the switch to the new work order system, the previous email, workorder@etown.edu, would be closed as of Friday, March 15.


The new work order request system, which has been in place since before Spring Break, can be accessed through links sent by the Campus News emails, the Facilities page on the College’s website or the Residence Life “Info for Current Students” section of the College’s website.


The link leads to a login page which requires the same credentials as someone’s email and JayWeb logins.


Once logged in, there will be a page asking for the requester’s name, email and phone number. The next step asks for location, area and room number, if applicable. The third step requires the requester to select the problem type that best describes their issue, such as electrical or appliance repair.


The fourth step is a box that asks for a description of the problem or request. Requesters also have the option of attaching two files to their work order. The final step is to submit the work order to Facilities.


Students, faculty or staff with any questions about the new work order system can call Facilities at 717-361-1478.
