Scenario

GoGoRoad provides roadside assistance services through contracted vendors. To ensure customer satisfaction and service consistency across vendors, auditors review common service requests (including vehicle unlock, tire repair, and battery charge). The new auditor role requires a unique interface. As the Director of Vendor Management, create a new Auditor portal and add an existing landing page to view recent Assistance Request cases.

Note: Before you begin, generate 5-10 case instances with varying service types.

The following table provides the credentials you need to complete the challenge.
