Self-Service Portal

Overview

The Self-Service Portal at My Workplace (/mein-arbeitsplatz) is the personal landing page for every authenticated user. It surfaces the three most common work areas on a single page:

  • My Assets — every asset currently assigned to the user
  • Open Tickets — ITSM tickets the user has reported
  • Active Processes — in-progress asset movements that involve the user's assets

On top of these summaries, five Quick Actions give users a fast start into new work items directly from the portal.


Quick Actions

Above the three summary sections the portal offers five shortcuts:

ActionTarget
New requestGuided form that creates a new request ticket
Service catalogCard grid of all available request categories
Report an issueJump straight into ticket creation
My devicesAsset list filtered to the user's own assignments
Active processesMovement overview

Visibility depends on permissions and the active ITSM licence of the tenant.


Service Catalog

At /mein-arbeitsplatz/katalog users find a catalog of predefined request categories:

  • Hardware request — order a device, accessory, or replacement
  • Software request — request a licence or software install
  • Access request — request access to a system, folder, or application
  • Report a problem — report a defect or malfunction (filed as an incident)
  • Training request — request onboarding or training
  • Other — anything that does not fit another category

Each card is a deep-link into the request form with the type pre-selected (?type=<key>).


New Request Form

The form at /mein-arbeitsplatz/anfrage captures:

  1. Request type — chosen via the card picker (six categories)
  2. Your contact details — auto-filled from the current login, read-only
  3. Short title — required, max. 255 characters
  4. Description — optional, free text

On submit an ITSM ticket is created with the matching ticket type:

  • Report a problemincident (medium priority)
  • all other categories → service_request (medium priority)

After successful creation the newly opened ticket is displayed along with a deep-link to the ticket detail page (/desk/<id>).

No active ITSM licence

If the tenant has no active ITSM add-on licence, the form remains visible but every field and the submit button are disabled. A notice banner tells the user to contact their admin.


Security & isolation

  • All portal data is scoped to the authenticated user — only their own assets, tickets, and movements are returned.
  • Ticket creation follows the same permission, audit-log, and tenant isolation rules as the agent portal.
  • The request type is a UI helper only; server-side the ITSM type (incident / service_request) is what matters.
