Order Entry in Service Management (Classic) streamlines how you create, track, and fulfill sales orders—from capturing initial requests to issuing picking tickets, managing backorders, and generating invoices.

A customer-owned asset is a piece of equipment that is owned by one of your customers instead of your organization. By registering their own equipment in your system, your customers can submit service requests for their equipment on a self-serve basis without affecting your organization’s inventory numbers.

  • Add Customer-Owned Equipment: Using the Add Equipment form on the E-Commerce Customer Access Portal, customers can register equipment in your system without any input from your staff. Your staff can also register equipment on your customers’ behalf!

 

  • Track Customer-Owned Equipment: Service Management offers two views for tracking customer-owned Equipment: for customers, the Equipment List in the Customer Access Portal; and for your staff, the Customer Owned Asset List in Service Management (Next).

     

  • Receive Service Requests: Once their equipment is registered in your system, customers can use the Service Request form to easily submit service requests through the Customer Access Portal. This powerful feature unlocks new revenue opportunities by allowing service requests to come to you!

The Service List page in the E-Commerce Customer Access Portal allows your customers to browse service requests for both rented and customer-owned equipment. They can search the list of Work Orders, and drill down into a specific Work Order to view more detailed information.

When viewing a Work Order’s details, customers can review line items, totals, comments left by the Mechanic or by other members of your team, and download a PDF copy of the Work Order.

By giving your customers a self-serve option for reviewing and print old Work Orders, the Service List page further reduces the workload on your support staff!

When managing Customers in Service Management (Classic), you will have the opportunity to set up to 2 default Technicians (Mechanics) and Parts Reps for each customer. These selections will then be visible in other areas of the system, such as when creating Work Orders or Sales Orders for that customer.

When creating a Work Order for a customer with a default Mechanic, that Mechanic will be selected by default.

If your organization is in the habit of assigning Mechanics to customers based on familiarity or geographic location, this small but powerful feature will free your staff from the obligation of remembering which Mechanics are associated with each customer!
