Support Sub-Owner When Creating Service Orders
When activated, every invoice will begin by gathering information defined here.  

This allows a business to bring in multiple items to be serviced which belong to several of its own customers, and then have all the billing for service under the business name.  For example, Ace Camera Repair is the POSitive store. Joe's Camera doesn't do their own repair, but brings in cameras from their customers to Ace Camera. When Ace Camera receives the service order, it goes under Joe's Camera account, but the sub-owner is Joe's customer. A report from the Service In Process window will print out the status of all of Joe's customers.

If checked, an area for entry of sub customer name, phone, and reference number appears as a service order is created.  There will also be a Sub-Owner button on the Service Orders In Process screen.

If unchecked, there is no area for entering the names and phone numbers of sub owners.

 

Do Not Print Service Notes On Invoices

When activated, Work To Do, Work Done notes created on the service order will not print when the service order is converted to an invoice.

 

Default Status When Creating New Service Order - Select a Status for newly added service orders.  (To create a another status option, go to Maintenance: Definitions: Service Order Status)

 

Add New Quotes As

Quotes are pending transactions not yet authorized by the customer.  Quotes can be generated with or without special service work instructions.  When you choose to Create a Quote, you will be prompted accordingly.
