Repair reporting intake, controlled in SortX.

Repairs arrive by phone, email, portal, WhatsApp and tenant app. SortX captures the issue, asks for missing evidence, checks duplicates and creates a clean repair case.

How it works in the branch.

Why repair reporting intake needs its own workflow

In a UK estate agency, this work crosses desks: negotiators, administrators, property managers, accounts, contractors, clients and compliance owners all need the same facts. SortX keeps the work on the operating record instead of spreading the detail across personal inboxes.

The repair intake agent does the repeatable work first: reading, checking, drafting, matching and opening the next task. Anything that changes a client position, spends money, sends a sensitive message or affects compliance can be held for approval.

How the branch stays in control

Managers can set owners, SLA clocks, approval limits and escalation rules around this workflow. Staff can still take over manually when a case needs judgement, and the record shows what the agent did before the handover.

That matters when the risk is messy intake and repeat reports. SortX gives the team the detail they need without asking them to hunt through tabs, exported reports or old message threads.
