Instructions

If your service appointment requires site access, you’ll receive an email that prompts you to approve site access before the technicians arrive. You can approve site access up to six hours before your scheduled appointment. If you don’t confirm site access at least six hours before your appointment, a Dell agent will reach out to the primary contact for the work order to obtain approval for the technicians to come to your location.
If you view your service request online, you’ll also see the option to confirm site access for your appointment.
You have two ways to confirm site access: follow the link in the email you received or search for your service request online.
To confirm site access from your email
  1. From the email, select Approve site access and follow the link to the service request online.
  2. On the Service Request Details page, you’ll see your service request, the work order, and the service appointment that requires site access confirmation. Select Confirm Site Access.
