ServiceChannel Integration
LUC-11999
Integration between Lucernex and ServiceChannel is now available.
Your organization can now align real estate and facilities management teams to increase efficiency in routing maintenance activities to correct stakeholders by leveraging the RE information sent from Lucernex to ServiceChannel. This helps your organization align real estate and facilities management teams to increase efficiency in routing maintenance activities to correct stakeholders. Information is sent from Lucernex to ServiceChannel once per day in the form of a CSV file with responsibility records belonging to Landlord For example, HVAC Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning = Landlord. ServiceChannel parses the file for deltas.
To use this integration, the ServiceChannel Integration feature toggle must be enabled in your organization. When the integration is enabled, the Service Channel Location ID displays in the Contract Abstract Info page. You can use this to link your lease Contract in Lucernex with the location and facility in ServiceChannel. Contact your Accruent representative who can help you configure this integration and the necessary page layout for contract responsibility records.
