Responding to 'Action Required' Items
If your order is in Action Required
status, Equinix needs information or approval from you. For example, the technician may have questions about the work, or Equinix may have proposed a different scheduled date/time for the work.
Important: In some cases, your action may be required by a certain date/time (which is specified in the order's Activity Timeline or the notification you received). If you do not respond within that time period, the order may be cancelled.
Use any of the following ways to find orders that need your attention:
-
Click the Action Required tab on the Orders and Tickets History screen.
-
Click the Notifications bell in the Customer Portal to see your action-item notifications. Items with a Respond By date are shown in red:
