Procedure
- Open the
Service Contract window and
query (F3) for the service contract for which you want to define vehicle service
lines.
- Click the Vehicle Services tab and create a new record
(F5).
- Enter a brief description of the service line in
the Description field.
- Enter the top part number of the serial part or structure for which this
service line is applicable.
- Next enter the workshop code and work
type which will serve as default values for work orders based on this
service line. You may enter % in the Work Type field if the work type is to
be decided later. Optionally you can connect a standard job (connected to
the work type), if you want information such as Execution Time, Costs and
Revenues to serve as default values as well.
- Select the Use on Fault Report check box to
indicate that this service line should be displayed in the List of Values
when connecting to a work order. Clear the check box if the service invoiced
should be invoiced according to the invoice plan.
- Enter the time period for which this service line
is valid in the Date From and Expiry Date fields.
- Enter values in the following fields to determine
how the customer should be invoiced: Invoice Rule ID, Invoice Type and
Cap
Price.
- If you selected Fixed Price
as the invoice type in
the previous step, enter values in the Sales Part No and Price fields found
under the Fixed Price Execution area. The values will be applied to the work
order.
- If the service contract as a whole is to be
invoiced enter the sales part number to be invoiced in the Sales Part No
field found under the Periodic Prices area. Additionally enter an alternate
customer if the service contract is to be paid for by a different customer.
- Save the information (F12).
