Screen sections
1. Page header
The header identifies the queue and provides context that this page is used for custom application intake and discovery progression.
2. Summary cards
Summary cards may show:
- total requests
- pending
- in progress
- needs info
- completed
These make it easy to understand current backlog and workflow state.
3. Search
Search allows users to quickly find requests by title, notes, status, or other text-based information.
4. Discovery request cards or rows
Each request entry may show:
- title
- notes
- status
- priority
- assignment
- activity
- linked application if conversion already happened
5. Status actions
Depending on role, users may be able to move a request through statuses such as pending, in progress, needs info, completed, or rejected.
6. Assignment controls
Assignment controls help users route the request to the correct owner.
7. Activity and attachments
Where shown, activity and attachment sections allow collaboration and evidence capture directly on the request.
8. Conversion action
If the request is ready, users may be able to convert it into a real application.
How to use this screen
A common workflow is:
1. review summary counts 2. search or filter to the needed request 3. review notes and activity 4. assign or update status 5. convert to application when ready
Best practice
Use this page to manage uncertainty and discovery, not to rush directly into application creation without context.
