   Select

   • From the Service Call Status window:
     • Select Cards > Service Management > Service Manager. Select a customer and select the History indicator.  In the Service Call Lookup by Customer window, double-click a call. From the Service Call window, select Go To, and select Service Call Status. Select the Inventory button.
     • From the main Inquiry navigation, select Service Management, and select Service Call Status. If you have the service call ID, you can enter that in the Service Call ID field and tab off to automatically populate the Customer ID and Location Address ID fields and the service call information. Select the Inventory button.
4. The Sales Transaction Entry window opens. An association is made between the service call and the inventory transaction when you select the Inventory button. This link to the service call is broken after you save the window. If you want to enter multiple inventory transactions for this same service call, exit and re-enter the Sales Transaction Entry window before creating another entry, or use the User-Defined button to open the window where you can enter the service call ID. This ensures the document is linked to the service call as an inventory transaction and does not result in the creation of an accounts receivables transaction.

5. Complete the Sales Transaction Entry window. See the Microsoft Dynamics GP Sales Order Processing Manual for information.
   The Customer ID and Customer Name fields default from the Service Invoice window. If you want to change the customer ID, you must delete the sales transaction and enter a new one. If you select a document type of Quote, the transaction will not appear on the service invoice, although the information is saved in Microsoft Dynamics GP and is available when you transfer the quote. Order, invoice, returns, and back order amounts saved in Microsoft Dynamics GP appear in the Materials cost category on the service invoice, with costs appearing in the Actual Cost column. You can post individual transactions from Microsoft Dynamics GP or post the invoice from Service Management. SOP invoices must be posted from Microsoft Dynamics GP. Price matrices are not used when calculating billing amounts for inventory items. The billing amount comes from Microsoft Dynamics GP price levels. Trade discount, freight, miscellaneous, and tax amounts are not included with the service invoice amount when entering transactions through SOP. 

   Note
   You cannot mark the individual sales order or quote document as repeating in the Sales Document Detail Entry window (Transactions > Sales Trx Entry > Document No. field expansion button). Also, you cannot assign an SOP transaction to a service call or job using the User-Defined Field Entry window if the individual SOP sales order or quote document is marked as repeating.

   
   

Step 2: Enter User-Defined Information

• In the Sales Transaction Entry window, select User-Defined. The Sales User-Defined Fields Entry window opens. See the Microsoft Dynamics GP Sales Order Processing Manual for information on completing the window.
• The Type field is disabled with the Service Management radio button selected and the service call ID entered. You can change the service call ID using the lookup window. However, if you delete the service call ID and leave the window, the service call ID will not default if you reopen the window. You don't have to open this window before saving the sales transaction. You are not able to mark the individual sales order or quote document as repeating in the Sales Document Detail Entry window (Transactions > Sales Trx Entry > Document No. field expansion button). Also, you cannot assign a SOP transaction to a service call or job using the User-Defined Field Entry window if the individual SOP sales order or quote document is marked as repeating.

The billing amount fills in for you based on the price matrix selected for the location. You can use the lookup button in the Equipment field to attach the inventory item to a piece of equipment. Save the record and close the Service Costs - Inventory window to return to the Item Transaction Entry window.
