Setting Up SM Call Types
SM Call Types classify the work technicians perform (inspection, repair, maintenance, agreement work, and so on) on work-order scopes and the dispatch board.
Before you start
- List the service activities you want to track.
- Prefer creating call type categories first if you color-code the board.
Steps
- Open SM Call Types.
- Create a call type with a unique identifier and description.
- Assign it to a call type category for dispatch-board color grouping.
- Set any defaults (rates or related tasks) your company uses.
- Save so the call type is available on work-order scopes.
Notes
- Mis-categorized call types make the dispatch board harder to read.
