Details

This information appears on the Estimates, Work Orders, and Invoices PDF. Enter detailed descriptions of services to set the customer’s expectations or to act as instructions to the technician. It can be later modified when creating an Estimate, Work Order, or Invoice.

Price

Enter the most commonly used price for the service. The price should be one that you'll use most often (so you'll change it the fewest number of times). It can be changed later when creating the Estimate, Work Order, or Invoice.

Active

This option will manage the ability to create new estimates, work orders and invoices with this service. If Active = No, the existing associated documents are not affected, however users will not be able to associated inactive service with new documents. *see Merging Services to combine or consolidated service types

Sentricon

This option will only be displayed if your Fieldwork Account is integrated with Sentricon. When you designate a Service as Sentricon = Yes, Fieldwork will sync that service when completed to your Sentricon database for required Sentricon reporting..

One Time Service

The optional One Time Service = Yes will allow you to quickly identify the Recurring vs. One Time services on the Service Profitability Report. When you designate a specific service as One Time Service = Yes, you will see the total of One Time Income vs Recurring Income on the Service Profitability Report.
