- Quick Print Workorder
This is the workorder format that prints after choosing the Quick button in the Service Call window. The Quick button prints a workorder with one mouse click, as opposed to the Print button, which takes three mouse clicks. Choose the workorder format that you print most often. - Number of Days
This is the number of days to consider for recent call notification. A message will display in the Service Manager window if service calls were opened for the customer location within this number of days. MCC calls are not considered. If zero is in the field, you will not be notified of recent calls. - Address
Select an address default. The address default you select — ZIP code or postal code — becomes the label of the eighth field in the Service Manager window. The third address field in the Customer and Location windows is user-definable.
Auto-Roll Calls ForwardAnchor servicemanagement_choosing_servi_4828 servicemanagement_choosing_servi_4828
You may have service calls and appointments that were not answered on the day they were initially scheduled. You are prompted to roll these calls forward when you open Service Management. Mark this check box if you want to automatically roll service calls forward rather than receiving the prompt. You can choose to exclude certain call types or job appointments. The system rolls forward open service calls and appointments. Open service calls and appointments have a status other than Complete or Closed. The system looks at the call and appointment status independently. When an appointment is rolled forward, the Start Time field is cleared. Rolling a call forward changes the Date field in the Service Call and Service Call Appointments windows to the current system date. If an appointment date is before the roll-forward date and the service call date is after the roll-forward date, the appointment is rolled forward and the service call is not. If the Date/Time Lock field on the Service Call window is marked, the service call and its appointments are not rolled forward. You can exclude rolling forward maintenance calls (MC), computer-generated maintenance calls (MCC), and all other call types. For instance, if your technicians complete MCC service calls as time allows throughout the month, you may not need to roll those calls forward, so you would mark the check box to exclude MCC. On the other hand, an emergency call that was not completed would need to be moved to the current day, so you would not exclude all other call types.Calls also can be rolled forward to a new day using the Call Roll Forward process. See Rolling calls forward.- Number of Service Calls to display on Service Manager
You can view the last X number of service calls for a selected customer location or contract on the Service Manager window. This is useful if you want information about the most recent service calls related to a specific location or contract, but you do not want to browse through the service calls in the lookup window to find the correct ones. By default, the most recent five service calls will display on the Service Manager window. You can change this default.
