> Notes:
> 
> Only Tenants Admins receive Work Order Survey notifications.
> 
> Surveys can be tailored to specific tenants or issue types.
> 
> Email and push notifications are supported simultaneously.
> 
> Building Admins and Building Managers can review, filter, and export responses directly in the dashboard.
> 
> Setting Up a Work Order Survey
> After enabling the feature, building admins can create surveys under Work Orders → Setup → Surveys.
> Each survey includes the following fields:
> 
> Status: Active or Inactive
> 
> Tenants: Apply to all tenants or select specific tenants
> 
> Issue Type: Apply to all, none, or specific issue types (multi-select)
> 
> Survey Frequency: How often the survey should appear per tenant (e.g., every 1, 3, or 5 work orders)
> 
> Notification Settings: Choose whether to send email and push notifications when a survey is triggered (enabled by default)
> 
> ⚠️ Important: Assigning a survey to an issue type automatically overwrites any existing survey linked to that issue type. Each issue type can only be associated with one active survey at a time.
> How Surveys Are Sent
> When a Work Order with a configured survey is completed:
> 
> The Created For user on the work order (typically the tenant) receives both an email and push notification asking for feedback.
> 
> The message reads: "How was your experience with your recently completed work order? We’d love your feedback.”
> 
> Clicking Take Survey in the email or tapping the push notification opens the survey in the Dashboard or mobile app.
> 
> Completing a Work Order Survey
> Tenants can complete surveys in two ways:
> Option 1: From Notification
> 
> Tap the push notification or click Take Survey in the email.
> 
> The full-screen survey form opens in the Cove app or dashboard.
> 
> Answer all questions and submit.
> 
> Option 2: From Work Order Detail View
> 
> Open the relevant Work Order in the dashboard.
> 
> If a survey is pending, a Take Survey button will appear in the detail view.
> 
> Click Take Survey to open the form in a side drawer and submit your feedback.
> 
> Viewing Survey Responses
> Property teams can view, filter, and export Work Order survey responses in Work Orders → Setup → Survey Responses.
> The responses table includes:
> 
> Work Order ID (linked to detail view)
> 
> Assignee
> 
> Category and Issue Type
> 
> Date Submitted
> 
> You can:
> 
> Search and filter by Work Order ID, Issue Type, or Assignee
> 
> Download the table for reporting and analysis
> 
> Within a Work Order Detail View
> 
> If a response has been submitted, it will appear under the Feedback Response section.
> 
> If no response exists, you’ll see an empty state: "No feedback submitted yet.”
> 
> Managing Work Order Surveys
> 
> Edit or duplicate surveys from the setup page to reuse question templates.
> 
> Deactivate a survey to stop sending notifications without deleting it.
> 
> Reassign or remove issue types as needed — the system automatically prevents duplicates.
> 
> Example
> Scenario:
> A property team wants to track satisfaction with janitorial requests and receive consistent tenant feedback, and they have connected with their CSM or Technical Support to turn on this capability.
> Setup Steps:
> 
> Create a new Work Order Survey named “Janitorial Feedback.”
> 
> Set Survey Frequency to Every 3 Work Orders per Tenant, so tenants don’t receive a survey after every request.
> 
> Under Issue Type, select “Cleaning / Janitorial.”
> 
> Keep Send Email and Push Notifications checked.
> 
> Save the survey and activate it.
> 
> Result:
> 
> Every third janitorial work order completed for a tenant triggers an automatic email and push notification.
> 
> The tenant can complete the survey directly in the app or dashboard.
> 
> The property team can view results under Survey Responses, filter by issue type, and export data for reporting.
