Service Documents

Create service documents for a single serial number recording the required information. The following job number will be assigned automatically; there is also the ability to record an internal job number.

The labour cost will populate based on the currently active user or the default from the system options screen; record the number of hours worked if required.

 

The full notes section captures complete information regarding the service or repair, work carried out, tests run, etc.

 

The grid allows for the capture of item codes used on the service or repair and sundry costs and remarks.

 

The serial number is linked automatically when creating a service document from a task or activity.  Otherwise, the serial number can be attached using the serial finder.

 

The card grid displays the attached serial number information to assign the correct serial number.

 

Link the contact type to the service document and the required account and contact details. Prospects can be linked to service documents, but it usually is customers. When creating a service document from a task or the customer account is set automatically.

 

Printing the service document can be designed to fit the requirements; the default shows the full details, costing lines, and the complete document notes captured.

 

Labour Rate is only used on service documents; repairs generated and billed to customers should have a financial line (or item code) added for the labour charge.
