6.1 Understanding Work Order Management

You can create work orders for customer requests that cannot be resolved with a phone call. You enter work orders to request work at the customer site or at a repair depot. Work orders provide the central database for all service and repair information and the events associated with an equipment record, inventory item number, or product model. Work orders track requests for depot repairs, and they track shipments of replacement parts. The majority of service calls are initiated through the Case module, but the repair depot might also create them.

A work order enables you to track all of the necessary phases of the work to resolve the customer's issue, from scheduling the technician to the technician's arrival and successful completion of the work.

You can also use work orders to manage the workflow of service tasks and other projects. You can manage all aspects of a service task or project, including:

• Creating work orders for preventive and corrective maintenance.

• Committing inventory to a work order.

• Scheduling multiple tasks, such as mechanical, electrical, and so on, in a work order.

• Tracking the progress of a work order by status.

• Tracking work order costs, such as labor, materials, and so on.

• Recording unlimited detailed information about a work order.

• Completing and closing a work order.

6.1.1 Work Order Management Process Flow

The steps through which a work order must pass to accurately communicate the progress of the tasks that it represents are the life cycle of the work order. You can select to display the Status Change form each time the work order advances through a step in the life cycle. This flowchart illustrates the flow of a work order through a typical work order life cycle:

Figure 6-1 Example of Work Order Management process flow

Description of ''Figure 6-1 Example of Work Order Management process flow''

6.1.2 Terms and Concepts

These Work Order Management terms and concepts are used in this chapter:

Base Warranty

The warranty that is associated with the equipment. Base warranties are typically included in the purchase price of the equipment and are nonbillable.

Extended Warranty

An optional warranty that can be purchased to cover the performance of the equipment over and above the criteria set forth in the base warranty. This type of warranty is billable.

Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF)

The average time, distance, or events between breakdowns.

Mean Time to Repair

The average time it takes to repair a failed item.

Returned Material Authorization (RMA)

An authorization from the supplier for the customer to return inventory for credit, replacement, or repair. The system creates an authorization number for the supplier to track the return of the inventory. This is also known as Returned Goods Authorization (RGA).

Serial Number

The numbers or letters that uniquely identify an item. The serial number is stored in the Asset Master File table (F1201).

Service Package

The combination of service type and contract coverage that specifies the service support to which the customer is contractually entitled. Service packages also specify warranty types, such as base or extended.

Service Address Number

The Address Book number of the site where a piece of equipment is located. The site number can be the same as the customer number, but it might differ if the customer has multiple sites.

6.2 Understanding Work Order Mass Updates for Service Work Orders

The work order mass update process enables you to select and modify multiple work orders at the same time. You can use the mass update process for service work orders that have a work order type of 05 (service) from the Order Type (48/OT) UDC table.

You use the Search for Work Orders program (P48022) to search for and select the work orders that you want to modify, and then use the Work Order Mass Update program (P48714) to enter the new values that you want to apply to the selected work orders. Alternatively, you can set up templates in the Work Order Mass Update Template program (P48710) to specify default values for the fields that you want to update. After you enter the new values, you run the Work Order Mass Update batch program (R48714) in draft mode, verify the changes that you want to make, and then run the R48714 program in final mode to commit the changes to the database.

See "Using the Work Order Mass Update Process" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Work Orders Implementation Guide.

6.2.1 Accessing the Work Order Mass Update Programs

Links to the Work Order Mass Update Template program and the Search for Work Orders program appear on the Periodic Work Order Processing menu (G1722). You access the Work Order Mass Update interactive program from the Search for Work Orders program, and access the Work Order Mass Update batch program from the Work Order Mass Update interactive program.

You can also access the Search for Work Orders program using these access points:

• An option in the Form menu in the CRM Service Order Revisions program (P90CD020).

  The system launches the version of the Search for Work Orders program that you specify in the Work Order Mass Update (P48022) Version processing option in the CRM Service Order Revisions program.

  See Setting Processing Options for CRM - Manage Service Orders (P90CD002).

• An option on the Form menu in the Work With Work Orders program (P48201).

  The system launches the version of the Search for Work Orders program that you specify in the Work Order Mass Update (P48022) Version processing option in the Work With Work Orders program.

  See "Setting Processing Options for Work With Work Orders (P48201)" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Shop Floor Management Implementation Guide.

6.2.2 Setting Up Your Environment to Use the Work Order Mass Update Process for Service Work Orders

Before you use the work order mass update process, you should set up versions and processing options for the programs used by the process. In addition to the processing options for the Search for Work Orders and Work Order Mass Update programs, the system uses some of the processing options from the versions of service work order management programs that you specify.

This table lists the programs for which you should set up processing options.

Note: This table lists only the programs that have processing options that affect how work orders are processed in the work order mass update process. You will set up and specify versions of other applications if you do not want to use default versions. You specify the versions to use in the processing options of the Search for Work Orders program.

Program	Processing Options
Search for Work Orders (P48022)	You specify the version of this program to use in processing options in the Work With Work Orders (P48201) and CRM - Manage Service Orders (P90CD020) programs. The Search for Work Orders program includes processing options in which you specify the versions of the programs to use when you use Form and Row menu options. You will need to set up versions of those programs if you choose to use a version other than the default version noted in the processing option description. See "Setting Processing Options for Search for Work Orders (P48022)" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Work Orders Implementation Guide.
Work Order Mass Update (P48714)	You specify the version of this program to use in the Search for Work Orders program. See "Setting Processing Options for Work Order Mass Updates (P48714)" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Work Orders Implementation Guide.
CRM - Manage Service Orders (P90CD002)	To use a specific version of the CRM - Manage Service Orders (P90CD002) program), in the processing options for the Search for Work Orders program: Enter 3 in the Work Order Revisions Application processing option, Enter 1 (service) in the Work Order Type processing option. Specify the version name of the CRM - Manage Service Orders program to use in the Work Order Revisions Version processing option in the Search for Work Orders program.
Work Order Revisions (P17714)	To use a specific version of the Work Order Revisions program (P17714), in the processing options for the Search for Work Orders program: Specify1 in the Work Order Revisions Application processing option. Specify 1 (service) in the Work Order Type processing option. Specify the version name of the Work Order Revisions program to use in the Work Order Revisions Version processing option.
Work With Work Orders (P48201)	You can access the work order mass update programs from an option on the Form menu in the Work With Work Orders program. Set the Work Order Mass Update (P48022) Version processing option in the Work With Work Orders program to use the appropriate version. See "Setting Processing Options for Work With Work Orders (P48201)" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Work Orders Implementation Guide.
Planning Workbench (P13700)	You can access the work order mass update programs from an option on the Form menu in the Planning Workbench program. Set the Work Order Mass Update (P48022) Version processing option in the Planning Workbench program to use the appropriate version. See "Setting Processing Options for the Planning Workbench Program (P13700)" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Capital Asset Management Implementation Guide.

6.2.3 Service-Specific Work Order Mass Update Functions

You can use the work order mass update process to update manufacturing, tenant, service, and equipment work orders. When working with work orders for service, you should note that:

• Some of the options available in the work order mass update process are available for only specific work order types.

• Some actions that you can perform when working with individual service work orders are not supported when you work with multiple service work orders.

• Some of the processing options that you set up in the version of the Work Order Revisions program (P17714) and CRM - Manage Service Orders program (P90CD002) that you use when working with work order mass updates affect the processing of the work order mass updates.

This table lists the functions that are specific to working with service work orders, the functions that are not supported when you work with multiple service work orders, and the processing logic in the Work Order Revisions (P17714) and CRM - Manage Service Orders (P90CD002) programs that affect work order mass updates for service work orders.

Function	Description
Craft	When you perform a search using a value in the Craft field, the system populates the grid in the Search for Work Orders program for only the work orders that have labor lines with a work center value that matches the value for the Craft field.
Prepayments	Mass updates for work orders for which prepayment processing is enabled is not supported.
Component change-out	The component change-out function is not supported when you work with mass updates for equipment work orders.
Entitlement checking	Entitlement checking is not supported when you work with mass updates for service work orders. When you set up the processing options for the Search for Work Orders program you must specify versions of these programs that do not have entitlement checking enabled: Work Order Revision (P17714) CRM - Manage Service Orders (P90CD002) If you use entitlement checking, the system assumes that the Service Order Entitlement Trigger field in the S/WM System Constants is set to 3 (customer), 6 (branch/plant) or 7 (site number). The work order mass update process verifies that entitlement checking is disabled only when the Service Order Entitlement Trigger field is set to one of these values. Changing the customer, site, or branch for a work order record can also trigger entitlements and require that labor and parts for the work order also be changed. If a work order has associated labor or parts records, you cannot change the customer, site or branch.
Field updates	Some fields that appear in service work orders are not editable when you work with multiple work orders. See "Unsupported Fields by Work Order Type" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Work Orders Implementation Guide.
Default Date and Time for Status processing option	If you set this processing option to 1 to use the current system date and time on status change, the system will use the current system date and time will to update the completed date and time on the work order when you process work order mass updates.
Create Labor Detail processing option	If you set this processing option to 1 to create labor detail, the system creates the labor detail if the Lead Craft field is populated with an update value and no labor detail lines exist for the work order.
Email Manager/Crew processing option	If you set this processing option to 1 to send emails, the system sends a message to the manager if you change the value in the Manager field on the Service Work Order Mass Update form.
Create Individual Resource Assignments processing option	If you set this processing option to 1 to create assignments, the system creates resource assignments when you change the value in the Assigned To field on the Service Work Order Mass Update form.
Status Window on Update processing option	If you set this processing option to 1, status related fields are not displayed on Service Work Order Mass Update form. Leave this processing option blank to display and enable status update fields.
Field-level validations	The system uses the same field-level validations for work order mass updates as it uses when you update single work orders. For example, the system validates the currency code when you change the branch or customer number, and validates the tax rate area and tax explanation code when you change the site number. The values that you enter in these fields on the Service Work Order Mass Update form take precedence over the logic used in the field-level validations: Covered G/L Category Non-Covered G/L Category Planned Completion Date

6.3 Common Fields Used in This Chapter

Act. Payable Rate (actual payable rate)

Enter the actual payable rate associated with a transaction.

Bill Y/N (bill yes/no)

Enter a value that specifies whether a general ledger account should be billed. Values are:

Y: Yes, the account should be billed.

N: No, it should not be billed.

4: It is eligible only for cost.

Note: Codes 1, 2, and 4 relate only to the Service Billing system.

Capacity UOM (capacity unit of measure)

Enter a unit of measure that you use to express the capacity of a production line. Examples of units of measure include hours, number of stampings, coats of paint, and so on.

This item is used for repetitive processing only.

Competency Code

Enter a code that specifies a competency within a competency type. For example, a competency for the competency type Skill might be programming in the C computer language or driving a forklift.

Competency Level From

This value set the lowest value to be included in the rule criteria range for a competency level range selection.

Competency Level To

This value set the highest value to be included in the rule criteria range for a competency level range selection.

Competency Type

Enter a code that identifies a competency table or category for which you can track employee competencies. Values are:

01: Training

02: Skill

03: Accomplishment

04: Certification

05: Degree

06: Language

Values are stored in UDC 05/CY (Competency Type), but are hard-coded and cannot be changed. Therefore, each of the competencies that you track must pertain to one of these competency types. Adding additional values to this list requires system customization.

Cost Type

Enter a code that designates each element of cost for an item. Examples of the cost object types are:

A1: Purchased raw material.

B1: Direct labor routing roll-up.

B2: Setup labor routing roll-up.

C1: Variable burden routing roll-up.

C2: Fixed burden routing roll-up.

Dx: Outside operation routing roll-up.

Xx: Extra add-ons, such as electricity and water.

The optional add-on computations usually operate with the type Xx extra add-ons. This cost structure enables you to use an unlimited number of cost components to calculate alternative cost roll-ups. The system then associates these cost components with one of six user-defined summary cost buckets.

Coverage Group

Enter a user-defined code that specifies the coverage group. The coverage group consists of unlimited cost codes and the percentage covered for each cost code.

Entitlement Check

Enter a value from UDC 17/ER (Entitlement Check) that indicates the results of an entitlement check.

Values are:

0: Not entitled.

1: Transaction entitled.

2: Contract found, but no existing service type.

3: Contract found, but no day and date assigned.

4: Covered under default warranty.

Est. Billable Rate (estimated billable rate)

Enter the estimated billable rate associated with a service.

Est. Payable Rate (estimated payable rate)

The estimated payable rate associated with a transaction.

Estimated Payment Amount

The estimated payment amount used in service billing.

Flat Rate

Enter a code used to determine whether a particular type of service is priced based on a flat rate or based on actual time and materials. Values are:

F: Charges for labor are based on one flat rate. Charges for parts are already included in the flat rate.

T: Charges for labor are based on actual labor hours. Charges for parts are based on actual parts used.

Blank: A blank value is only valid when defining the method of pricing for a service provider. It is used to indicate that the service provider is an internal service provider and is not paid for the service.

If you use flat rate as the pricing method, you must associate one labor step with the work order.

Match Rule

Indicates whether the resource must satisfy the requirements that define the rule criteria. Values are:

1: The resource must meet the rule criteria.

0: The rule criteria are optional.

Message No (message number)

Enter a generic rates and message code (48/SN) that is assigned to a standard note, message, or general narrative explanation. You can use this code to add instructional information to a work order. You set up codes for this field on the Generic Message/Rate Types table (F00191).

Op St (operational step)

Enter a value from UDC 31/OS (Operation Status) that identifies the current status of a work order or engineering change order as the operation steps in the routing are completed.

Oper Seq# (operational sequence number)

Enter a number used to indicate an order of succession.

In routing instructions, a number that sequences the fabrication or assembly steps in the manufacture of an item. You can track costs and charge time by operation.

In bills of material, a number that designates the routing step in the fabrication or assembly process that requires a specified component part. You define the operation sequence after you create the routing instructions for the item. The Shop Floor Management system uses this number in the backflush/preflush by operation process.

In engineering change orders, a number that sequences the assembly steps for the engineering change.

For repetitive manufacturing, a number that identifies the sequence in which an item is scheduled to be produced.

Skip To fields enable you to enter an operation sequence that you want to begin the display of information.

You can use decimals to add steps between existing steps. For example, use 12.5 to add a step between steps 12 and 13.

Pay Price Method

Enter a code used to determine if a particular type of service is priced based on a flat rate or based on actual time and materials.

Values are:

F: Flat rate. Charges for labor are based on one flat rate. Charges for parts are already included in the flat rate.

T: Time and materials. Charges for labor are based on actual labor hours. Charges for parts are based on actual parts used.

Blank: None. A blank value is only valid when defining the Method of Pricing for a service provider. It is used to indicate that the service provider is an internal service provider and should not be paid.

Payable Adj Schedule (payable adjustment schedule)

Enter a value from UDC 40/AS (Schedule Name) that identifies a price and adjustment schedule. A price and adjustment schedule contains adjustment types for which a customer or an item might be eligible. The system applies the adjustments in the sequence that you specify in the schedule. You link customers to a price and adjustment schedule through the customer billing instructions. When you enter a sales order, the system copies the schedule attached to the sold to address into the order header. You can override this schedule at the detail line level.

Payable Y/N (payable yes/no)

Enter a value that specifies whether a general ledger account should be paid. Values are:

Y: Should be paid.

N: Should not be paid.

Percent of Overlap

Enter a number that indicates the percentage that successive operations can overlap.

The actual overlap percentage entered for the operation sequence is the percent by which that operation overlaps the prior operation. For example, if you enter 80 percent, this indicates that work can begin on the overlapped operation when 20 percent of the prior operation is completed.

Note: Overlapping has no effect on move and queue calculations. The percentage entered must be less than or equal to 100 percent.

Enter percentages as whole numbers; for example, enter five percent as 5.00.

Percentage Covered

Enter the percentage covered under warranty or contract. This is used to calculate the amount to bill or the amount to cost for the line item being processed on the service order or call.

Piecework Rate

The rate to be paid for the type of component (piece) being produced.

Run Machine

Enter the standard machine hours that you expect to incur in the normal production of this item.

Setup Crew

Enter the number of people who work in the specified work center or routing operation.

The system multiplies the Run Labor value in the Routing Master table (F3003) by crew size during costing to generate total labor amounts.

If the Prime Load Code is L or B, the system uses the total labor hours for back scheduling. If the Prime Load Code is C or M, the system uses the total machine hours for back scheduling without modification by crew size.

Subsidiary

Enter a subset of an object account. Subsidiary accounts include detailed records of the accounting activity for an object account.

Note: If you are using a flexible chart of accounts and the object account is set to six digits, you must use all six digits. For example, entering 000456 is not the same as entering 456 because, if you enter 456, the system enters three blank spaces to fill a six-digit object.

Time and Materials

Enter a code used to determine if this type of service should be priced based on a flat rate or based on actual time and materials. Values are:

F: Charges for labor are based on one flat rate. Charges for parts are already included in the flat rate.

T: Charges for labor are based on actual labor hours. Charges for parts are based on actual parts used.

Blank: A blank value is only valid when defining the method of pricing for a service provider. It is used to indicate that the service provider is an internal service provider and is not paid.

If you use time and materials to price, both parts and labor are priced.

The values for the Flat Rate and Time and Materials fields come from the service contract's service package, based on the type of service on the work order.

The system retrieves tax rate and area information based on the service address number. Tax rate and area information is based on where the work is completed, not on the location of the customer.

6.4 Setting Up Work Orders

This section provides overviews of work-order related automatic accounting instructions (AAIs) and work order setup, lists prerequisites, and discusses how to:

• Set up work order constants.

• Set up work order history.

• Set processing options for the Work With Work Order History program (P17715).

• Attach activity rules to work orders.

To enter and review work orders on the web, you must activate Customer Self-Service functionality in the processing options for all applications that are part of the web environment.

See Also: "Working with Work Orders on the Web" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Capital Asset Management Implementation Guide

6.4.1 Understanding Work Order-Related AAIs

To bill and pay for work orders and process business transactions correctly, you must identify information about the account structure and specific account values. You define the account structure and values by using AAIs. The system stores the AAI values in the Distribution/Manufacturing - AAI Values table (F4095). Whenever a program performs an accounting function, it accesses this table.

When you define AAIs, you establish how the system processes transactions for various programs. Distribution and Manufacturing AAIs define the rules by which Service Management interacts with the General Ledger system. Accounting AAIs define the rules by which Service Management interacts with the Accounts Receivable system.

The work order-related distribution AAIs are:

• 1742: Work Orders (Billing).

• 1782: Work Order Claims (Paying).

Based on key fields, the system retrieves the general ledger account to use when creating an entry in the Billing Detail Workfile (F4812). The key fields are:

• Company

• Doc Type

• GL Class Code

• Cost Type

Based on these key fields, the system creates journal entries by using this information:

• Branch/Plant

• Object Account

• Subsidiary

The system retrieves the company, document type, GL class code, and cost type from the work order. If you enter four asterisks (****) in the Distribution AAIs for the GL class code, the system ignores the GL class code and uses the company, document type, and cost type.

If the business unit for the AAI is blank, the system locates the responsible business unit, based on the value that is specified in the Responsible Business Unit field, which is located on the Work Orders tab in the Service and Warranty Management (SWM) constants.

6.4.1.1 Hierarchy for GL Class Codes for Work Orders

The system identifies the proper GL category codes according to this hierarchy:

• Based on the service type on the work order, the system looks up the covered GL code and noncovered GL code in the Service Contract Services table (F1725).

• The covered GL code is used to locate the appropriate distribution AAIs for amounts that are covered by contract.

• The noncovered GL code is used to locate the appropriate distribution AAI for amounts that are not covered by contract.

• If GL codes (both covered and noncovered) in the Service Contract Services table are blank, then the system uses the AAIs that are set up with the four-asterisk wildcard (****).

Based on the company, document type, GL code, and cost type, the system retrieves the revenue or expense account to use when creating an entry in the Billing Detail Workfile table (F4812).

If the four-asterisk wildcard is entered in the distribution AAIs for the GL class code, then the system ignores the GL class code and uses the company, document type, and cost type.

6.4.1.2 Hierarchy for the Responsible Business Unit for Work Orders

If the business unit for the AAI is blank, the system locates the responsible business unit based on the value that is specified in the Responsible Business Unit field, which is located on the Work Orders tab in the SWM constants.

In the SWM constants, you can select one of these options for the system to locate the responsible business unit:

Option	Description
Item Branch Master - Service/Warranty Extension (F41171)	The system uses the branch/plant and item number on the work order to look up the responsible business unit in the Item Branch Master -Service/Warranty Extension table (F41171). If the business unit exists in the table, the system uses this business unit in the resulting accounting journal entry.
Item Master - Service/Warranty Extension (F4117)	The system uses the item number on the work order to look up the responsible business unit in the Item Master - Service/Warranty Extension table (F4117). If the business unit exists in the table, the system uses this business unit in the resulting accounting journal entry.
Product Family/Model Master (F1790)	The system uses the product model on the work order detail line to look up the responsible business unit in the Product Family/Model Master table (F1790). If the business unit exists in the table, the system uses this business unit in the resulting accounting journal entry.
Asset Master File (F1201)	The system uses the equipment number on the work order detail line to look up the responsible business unit in the Asset Master File table (F1201). If the business unit exists in the table, the system uses this business unit in the resulting accounting journal entry.
Customer Master (F0301)	The system uses the customer number on the work order detail line to look up the responsible business unit in the Customer Master table (F0301). If the business unit exists for the customer in the table, the system uses this business unit in the resulting accounting journal entry.

Note: If you assign a project business unit to the responsible business unit in the Business Unit Master table (F0006), the system uses the project business unit as the business unit for the account.

See Setting Up AAIs.

6.4.2 Understanding Work Order Setup

Before you can use any of the features of Work Order Management, you need to define the critical information that the system needs for processing. You also specify the information you will use when you enter data throughout the system.

You also need to set up UDCs for Work Order Management.

6.4.2.1 Work Order Constants

To define default information that applies to the entire system, you set up system constants. Constants control the types of information that you track and the rules that the system uses to perform certain calculations.

6.4.2.2 Work Order History

Set up work order history to track work order status information by customer and by equipment. You can also set up the history so that a work order is not created for referenced equipment. These programs control the display of links within the work order entry program to indicate previous customer or product cases.

Default dates and status codes are defined by processing options. You can override default information by entering new dates and statuses. Links appear at the top of the work order entry forms to alert you to existing customer or product history. Click the links to see detailed information.

You access the processing options for the Work Order History - Customer (or Equipment) program (P17715) to specify how to set up work order history.

6.4.2.3 Work Order Activity Rules

You can set up rules that specify the statuses or steps through which a work order must pass. In addition, you can specify that certain statuses initiate events in the work order life cycle, such as:

• Updating the maintenance status.

• Locking the work order.

• Completing the Subledger Inactive Code field for the work order.

See "Setting Up Activity Rules for Work Orders" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Work Orders Implementation Guide.

You can attach work order activity rules to define the status flow and indicate the next step as determined by the status. Before the system can continue to the next step, you must enter the next status in the Next Status field. If you do not include the next status, the work order is considered complete. If you attach an open status code to the complete status revisions line, you can reopen the work order.

6.4.2.4 Work Order Approvals

You can specify the individuals who are responsible for approving work orders at various points in the work order life cycle. Use approval routing to create various approval routes.

See "Defining Approval Routes" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Work Orders Implementation Guide.

6.4.3 Prerequisites

Before you complete the tasks in this section:

• Set up work order document types in the Document Type Maintenance program (P40040) from the Work Order Setup menu (G1742).

  See Setting Up Document Type Information.

• For each document type, enter 1 in the Work Order field.

  The system uses this for splitting billing and costing amounts to different accounts, based on the service contract.

6.4.4 Forms Used to Set Up Work Orders for Service Management

Form Name	FormID	Navigation	Usage
S/WM System Constants Revisions form	W17001C	Service & Warranty Setup menu (G1740), Service & Warranty Constants. Select the Work Orders tab.	Set up work order constants.
Customer (or Equipment) - Work With Work Order History	W17715A	Work Order Setup (G1742), Work Order History - Customer (or Work Order History - Equipment).	Locate work orders by customer or equipment and review history.
Work Order Activity Rules	W4826D	Daily Work Order Processing menu (G1712), Work Order Entry Locate and select the work order to which you are attaching activity rules on the Work With Work Orders form. Select Supplemental, and then WO Activity Rules from the Row menu.	Attach activity rules to work orders.

6.4.5 Setting Up Work Order Constants

Access the S/WM System Constants Revisions form.

Responsible BU Location (responsible business unit location)

Enter a code that specifies from which tables the system retrieves the responsible business unit (that is, the business unit to which work orders are billed).

When adding a work order, the default value for the business unit is based on the constant value. For example, if the default value of the business unit is based on the equipment number, the system retrieves the value for the responsible business unit from the Equipment Master Extension table (F1217).

The default value is 1. Values are:

1: Item Master-Service/Warranty Extension table (F4117) and the Item Branch Master-Service/Warranty Extension table (F41171)

2: Product Family/Model Master table (F1790)

6.4.7 Setting Processing Options for the Work With Work Order History Program (P17715)

Use these processing options to supply the default values for the Work With Work Order History program.

The values that you enter for these processing options determine whether the system displays a link when existing work orders are associated with the inventory item number, product model, equipment number, or customer number, if applicable.

You must first enter the status of the work orders that define the selection range criteria. Then define the number of days of history that you want to view. For example, if you enter 30 days, the program displays the product or customer link if a work order falls within the status range and was entered 30 days before the system date.

6.4.7.1 Process

Specify the default values for work order history.

1. Beginning Status for History

Specify the beginning status in the range of work order statuses that the system displays.

2. Ending Status for History

Specify the ending status in the range of work order statuses that the system displays.

3. Number of Days of History to Display

Specify the range of work order creation dates to display. The system uses this option to calculate the value in the Creation Date From field.

4. Work Order Type

Enter a value from UDC 00/TY (Work Order/ECO Type) that specifies the type of work orders to display.

5. Repair Date From

Specify the From repair date for the range of work order repair dates.

6. Repair Date Through

Specify the To repair date for the range of work order repair dates.

6.4.8 Attaching Activity Rules to Work Orders

Figure 6-3 Work Order Activity Rules form

Description of ''Figure 6-3 Work Order Activity Rules form''

WO Status (work order status)

Enter a value from UDC 00/SS (Work Order Status) that describes the status of a work order, rate schedule, or engineering change order. Any status change from 90 through 99 triggers the system to automatically update the completion date.

WO Status Description (work order status description)

Enter a user-defined name or remark.

Next Status

Displays the next status for a work order, according to the work order activity rules, as the work order moves through the approval route.

You must define a status code as a work order status in the Work Order Activity Rules table before you can use it as a next status.

Allowed Status 1

(Optional) Indicates a status that can be assigned as the next step in the order process. Although this is not the preferred or expected next step, this status is an allowed override. The system does not allow you to initiate an order line step or status that is not defined as either the expected next status or an allowed status. Other allowed status codes enable you to bypass processing steps. In processing options, these codes are often referred to as override next status codes.

You must define a status code as a work order status in the Work Order Activity Rules table before you can use it as a next status or another allowed status.

Maint. Status (maintenance status)

Enter a value from UDC 12/MS (Maintenance Status) that indicates the maintenance status of a piece of equipment, such as 50 for maintenance due or 60 for waiting for parts.

Note: Status code 98 is reserved for canceled maintenance. Status code 99 is reserved for completed maintenance. Status code 01 (default) is reserved for initial maintenance setup.

Subledger Inactive

Select this option to indicate that a specific subledger is inactive. Examples of inactive subledgers are jobs that are closed, employees who have been terminated, or assets that have been disposed.

Select this option to indicate that a subledger is inactive. If a subledger becomes active again, clear this option.

If you want to use subledger information in the tables for reports, but you want to prevent transactions from posting to the record in the Account Balances table (F0902), select this option.

Lock Flag

Enter a code that determines whether a work order can be changed at a particular status. The lock applies to records in both the Work Order Master table (F4801) and the Work Order Instruction table (F4802). Values are:

Blank: Do not lock the work order.

1: Lock the work order.

2: Lock the work order with a completion date.

3: Do not lock the work order with a completion date.

4: Lock the work order, the parts list, and the routings.

5: Lock the work order, the parts list, and the routings with a completion date.

6: Lock the order type and the work order type only.

6.5 Creating Work Orders Using the Service Management Workbench Program (P90CD020)

This section provides an overview of work orders and the service management workbench, list prerequisites, and discusses how to:

• Enter work orders using the workbench.

• Set processing options for the Service Management Workbench program (P90CD020).

• Set processing options for the CRM - Manage Service Orders program (P90CD002).

6.5.1 Understanding Work Orders

You create work orders to formally request and schedule corrective maintenance, such as emergency repairs, and to record and communicate information about all of the details pertaining to the maintenance task. Circumstances for which you create a work order include:

• You need to bill for the parts and labor that are required to fix a piece of equipment.

• You need to send a technician to the site to repair the problem.

• You use a service provider to resolve the problem and you need to create a voucher for payment.

You can create work orders for equipment covered by warranties. When you create a work order for a piece of equipment that is under warranty, a message appears to alert you that a warranty is in effect. You indicate a piece of equipment is under warranty by creating preventive maintenance (PM) service types for the warranty.

Work orders contain basic information such as the work order number, description, and the business unit to which the work order is charged. You can enter additional information, such as category codes, to further identify the work order. You can assign record types to work orders and then enter descriptive information into each record type, to communicate important information about a task to others who are involved. For example, you might want to include special instructions and information about the parts and tools that are needed to complete the task.

In addition, you can copy parts from a standard parts list or assign nonstandard parts to a work order. You can also assign detailed labor routing instructions to a work order. For example, you can:

• Identify each work center that is needed to perform tasks.

• Specify the sequence in which the tasks are performed.

• Indicate the estimated duration of each task.

You can delete any work order from the system unless it has any of these characteristics:

• It is used as a parent work order.

• It has any account ledger transactions associated with it.

• It has a parts list or a routing attached.

When you enter a work order, the system creates a record in the Work Order Master File table (F4801) and creates an extension table to store information that is pertinent to Service Management work orders, the Work Order Master Tag File table (F4801T).

See Also: "Defining Work Orders" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Work Orders Implementation Guide. " Setting Processing Options for Work With Work Orders (P48201)" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Work Orders Implementation Guide.

6.5.2 Understanding the Service Management Workbench

The Service Management Workbench provides an interface that improves usability and navigation. You can add and revise service orders, as well as parts and labor, without having to access the programs separately using Row menus. Instead, programs are available from tabs and detail links from the Service Work Order - Manage {work order description} form.

If the organization is using Scripting, use the Script Runtime program (P90CF180) to guide you through a script that enables you to find a solution to a work order. A script is a predefined set of questions or statements that are joined in a particular order and used to gather information from respondents.

See "Setting Up Solution Advisor" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Customer Relationship Management for Support Implementation Guide.

See "Setting Up and Managing Scripts" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Customer Relationship Management for Support Implementation Guide.

6.5.3 Prerequisites

Before entering work orders, complete these tasks:

• Create a branch/plant.

• Set up Address Book SWM service provider information for the person entering work orders.

• Set up work order activity rules.

Figure 6-5 Work Order Revisions form

Description of ''Figure 6-5 Work Order Revisions form''

Branch

Enter a code that represents a high-level business unit. Use this code to refer to a branch or plant that might have departments or jobs, which represent lower-level business units, subordinate to it. For example:

Branch/Plant (MMCU)

Dept A (MCU)

Dept B (MCU)

Job 123 (MCU)

Business unit security is based on the higher-level business unit.

The branch default value is derived from the equipment record and defines the branch/plant from which inventory is issued.

Failure Description

Enter a description of the customer issue.

If you are accessing this form from the Case or Failure Analysis modules, the system enters information from the equipment record as default information when you enter a work order. The system also checks entitlement for the customer.

Actual Finish Date

Enter the date that the work order or engineering change order is completed or canceled. If the status of the work order is at a complete status, the system uses the current date as the default value.

Assigned To

Enter the address book number of the person assigned to do the work. For Service Management, the assigned-to person represents the primary technician.

Category 02 and Category 03

Enter a value from user-defined code (UDC) table 00/W2 (Work Order Category Code 2) or UDC 00/W3 (Work Order Category Code 3) that indicates the type or category of a work order.

Note: A processing option for some forms lets you enter a default value for this field. The system enters the default value automatically in the appropriate fields on any work orders that you create on those forms and on the Project Setup form. You can either accept or override the default value.

Category 04, Category 05 and Category 10

Enter values from UDCs 00/W4 (Work Order Category Code 4), 00/W5 (Work Order Category Code 5), or 00/W0 (Work Order Category Code 10) that indicate the type or category of the work order.

Covered G/L Category

Enter a value from UDC 41/9 (G/L Posting Category) that identifies the general ledger offset to use when the system is searching for the account to which it posts the covered portion (by warranty or contract) of the accounting transaction. If you do not want to specify a general ledger offset, you can enter four asterisks in this field or you can leave this field blank. If you leave this field blank, the system uses the general ledger offset from Inventory.

Est. Hours or Estimated Hours

Enter the standard hours of labor that you expect to incur in the normal production of the item or for the work order

The run labor hours in the Routing Master table (F3003) are the total hours that it takes the specified crew size to complete the operation. The hours are multiplied by the crew size during shop floor release and product costing.

Est. Labor (estimated labor)

This is the estimated labor cost of a work order.

Est. Material (estimated material)

This is the estimated material cost of a work order.

Est. Other (estimated other)

Amount - Estimated Other.

If you associate routings with a work order, the system retrieves default values for the Labor Hours and Labor Amount fields. If you associate a parts list with a work order, the system retrieves default values for the Material Amount field. When you add a routing list, a parts list, or both, the program updates the cost to the work order header.

Alternatively, to update the actual costs of a work order, you can run a batch program called Update W.O. Actual Amounts (R13800). This program summarizes transactions for labor and material, and updates the actual cost fields of the work order.

Estimated Downtime Hours

The estimated duration of a work order. It defines how long the piece of equipment might be out of service to complete the work order. This is different than total estimated hours.

Experience Level

Enter a value from UDC 00/W9 (PS Consulting Experience Lvl) that indicates the type or category of the work order.

Geographic Region

Enter the geographic region of the customer.

Inspector

Enter the Address Book number of the inspector. For Service Management, the inspector represents the secondary technician.

Language

Enter a value from UDC 01/LP (Language) that specifies the language to use on forms and printed reports. Before you specify a language, a code for that language must exist either at the system level or in the user preferences.

Manager

For Service Management, the manager represents the primary service provider.

Non-Covered G/L Category

Enter a value from UDC 41/9 (G/L Posting Category) that identifies the general ledger (GL) offset to use when the system is searching for the account to which it posts the noncovered portion of the accounting transaction. If you do not want to specify a general ledger offset, you can enter four asterisks (****) in this field, or you can leave the field blank. If you leave the field blank, the system uses the general ledger offset from Inventory.

The values for the Covered G/L Category and Non-Covered G/L Category fields come from the service contract's service package, based on the type of service on the work order.

Originator

Enter the Address Book number of the person who originated the change request. The system verifies this number against the Address Book.

Parent W.O. No (parent work order number)

Identifies the parent work order. You can use this number to:

Enter default values for new work orders, such as type, priority, status, and manager.

Group work orders for project setup and reporting.

Payment Amount

In the Accounts Payable system, the amount of the payment.

In the Accounts Receivable system, the amount of the receipt. This amount must balance to the total amount applied to the invoice pay items.

Phase

Enter a value from UDC 00/W1 (Phase/System Codes) that indicates the current stage or phase of development for a work order. You can assign a work order to only one phase code at a time.

Note: Certain forms contain a processing option that enables you to enter a default value for this field. If you enter a default value on a form for which you have set this processing option, the system displays the value in the appropriate fields on any work orders that you create. The system also displays the value on the Project Setup form. You can either accept or override the default value.

Priority

Enter a value from UDC 00/PR (Work Order Priority) that indicates the relative priority of a work order or engineering change order in relation to other orders.

A processing option for some forms lets you enter a default value for this field. The value then appears automatically in the appropriate fields on any work order you create on those forms and on the Project Setup form. You can either accept or override the default value.

Reference

Enter an alphanumeric value used as a cross-reference or secondary reference number. Typically, this is the customer number, supplier number, or job number.

Requested Finish Date

Enter the date that the work order or engineering change order is planned to be completed.

This date can be calculated based on contract coverage.

Skill Type

Enter a value from UDC 00/W8 (Country Code) that indicates the type or category of the work order.

Status

Enter a value from UDC 00/SS (Work Order Status) that describes the status of a work order, rate schedule, or engineering change order. Any status change from 90 through 99 triggers the system to automatically update the completion date.

Status

Enter a value from UDC 00/W6 (Consulting Status) that indicates the status of the work order.

Status Comment

Enter a brief description to explain the status of the work order.

Supervisor

Enter the Address Book number of the supervisor. For Service Management, the supervisor represent the secondary service provider.

Type Bill of Material

Enter a value from UDC 40/TB (Bill Type) that designates the type of bill of material. You can define different types of bills of material for different uses. For example:

M: Standard manufacturing bill

RWK: Rework bill

SPR: Spare parts bill

The system enters bill type M in the work order header when you create a work order, unless you specify another bill type. The system reads the bill type code on the work order header to know which bill of material to use to create the work order parts list. MRP uses the bill type code to identify the bill of material to use when it attaches MRP messages. Batch bills of material must be type M for shop floor management, product costing, and MRP processing.

Type of Routing

Enter a value from UDC 40/TR (Routing Type) that indicates the type of routing. You can define different types of routing instructions for different uses. For example:

M: Standard manufacturing routing

RWK: Rework routing

RSH: Rush routing

You define the routing type on the work order header. The system then uses the specific type of routing that you define in the work order routing.

Product Costing and Capacity Planning systems use only M type routings.

W.O. Flash Message (work order flash message)

Enter a value from UDC 00/WM (Work Order Flash Message) that indicates a change in the status of a work order. The system indicates a changed work order with an asterisk in the appropriate report or inquiry form field. The system highlights the flash message in the Description field of the work order.

6.7 Assigning Parts to a Work Order

This section provides an overview of parts assignment, lists prerequisites, lists the forms used to assign parts to a work order, and discusses how to:

• Set processing options for the CRM - Manage Work Order Parts program (P90CD015).

• Set processing options for the Work Order Parts Detail program (P17730).

6.7.1 Understanding Parts Assignment

You can assign parts to a work order to satisfy parts requirements for maintenance tasks. Depending on how you set up the system, you can indicate how and when it commits inventory to satisfy a work order's parts requirements. For example, you can use Workflow Management to direct the system to commit inventory to a work order only at a particular work order status.

You can assign parts from a standard parts list that you enter when you create the work order. In addition, you can assign inventory parts that do not appear on a standard parts list, such as when you are creating a work order for an unanticipated emergency repair. You can also assign parts for which you do not maintain an inventory master, such as special order parts that you rarely need.

You can also assign parts to a work order from a standard parts list. This action is especially useful when you create work orders for routine maintenance tasks that require identical parts.

6.9 Processing Work Orders

This section provides an overview of work order processing, lists prerequisites, and discusses how to:

• Generate and print quotes for work orders.

• Set processing options for the Work Order Quote program (R17711).

• Create work order prepayment transactions.

• Issue material from a single location.

• Issue material from multiple locations.

• Set processing options for the Work Order Inventory Issues program (P31113).

• Review and approve inventory journal entries.

• Enter time.

• Set processing options for the Work Order Time Entry program (P311221).

• Update hours and quantities.

• Set processing options for the W.O. Hours and Quantity Update program (R31422).

• Review and approve cost routing journal entries.

• Post cost routing journal entries to the general ledger.

6.9.1 Understanding Work Order Processing

After you have created work orders and made any necessary revisions, you can complete a number of tasks associated with processing work orders.

6.9.1.1 Quotes for Work Orders

You can generate quotes for work orders and print them for customers. The Work Order Quote program (R17711) displays the estimated quantities and amounts for all parts and labor, including taxes and the total amount of the work order.

See Generating and Printing Quotes for Work Orders.

6.9.1.2 Work Order Prepayment Transactions

To track a customer's payments that are prepaid, you can use prepayment processing. Customers can prepay by using cash, check, or credit card. If payment has already been made for service, the invoice reflects that the work order has been prepaid. If prepayments are being used with the work order, the full amount of the work order must be prepaid.

You can enter a work order to formally request repair work and schedule maintenance. You can also use work orders to record and communicate all details that are related to the repair task.

You must create a work order master for every service that you track. The work order master consists of basic information that defines the work order, such as the work order number, description, and the business unit to which the work order is charged. You can also enter additional information, such as category codes, to further identify the work order.

In addition, you can copy parts from a standard parts list or assign nonstandard parts to a work order. You can also assign detailed labor routing instructions to a work order. You can perform these steps:

• Identify each work center that is needed to perform repair tasks.

• Specify the sequence in which the tasks are performed.

• Indicate the estimated duration of each task.

You can delete any work order from the system unless it has any of these characteristics:

• It is used as a parent work order.

• It has any account ledger transactions associated with it.

• It has a parts list or a routing attached.

6.9.1.3 Issuing Inventory to Work Orders

You can use the Inventory Issue Revisions form to issue material that is associated with a work order. You can also change the commitments that the system recorded. When you change commitments, the system displays an error message if the quantities do not equal the total quantity required. The system also adjusts the available balance for any location for which you changed the quantity that is committed. The system creates journal entries. The total cost of each part can be split into separate journal entries, based on the percentage of the part that is covered under a contract.

To reverse an issue transaction, enter the item quantity as a negative number. The system decreases the amount in the Quantity Issued field.

Note: When you set processing options for Work Order Inventory Issues (P31113), locate the Work Order Number processing option on the Equipment Management tab. For Service Management, enter 1 for equipment issue entries.

6.9.1.4 Inventory Journal Entries: Review and Approval

When you review journal entries for posting, you can display a list of batches based on the batch type, number, date, status, or user ID. For example, you can review all batches with a posting status of pending. If the batch review security feature is activated, the system lists only the batches that you are authorized to review and approve.

After you review a list of batches, you can access transaction detail within a batch of journal entries. For example, you can review the number of journal entries within a batch. You can also select a particular journal entry for review.

After you enter and review a batch of journal entries, you might need to approve it before posting can occur. Based on the company requirements as defined by the general accounting constants, the system assigns either a pending or an approved status to the batch.

6.9.1.5 Cost Routing Journal Entries: Review and Approval

When you review journal entries for posting, you can display a list of batches that are based on the batch type, number, date, status, or user ID. For example, can review all of the batches with a posting status of pending. If the batch review security feature is activated, the system lists only the batches that you are authorized to review and approve.

After you review a list of batches, you can access transaction detail within a batch of journal entries. For example, you can review the number of journal entries within a batch. You can also select a particular journal entry for review.

After you enter and review a batch of journal entries, you might need to approve the batch before it can be posted. Based on the company requirements as defined by the general accounting constants, the system assigns either a pending or an approved status to the batch.

6.9.1.6 Time Entry

Use the Work Order Time Entry program (P311221) to charge hours and quantities to a work order. You can use the processing options to display the information in order number format or employee number format. Use these formats to record time and quantities for employees against work order routing steps, or work order routing steps against employees.

Note this important information about entering hours and quantities:

• Enter the quantity completed only once for each operation sequence number.

  Entering the quantity for each type of hours causes a variance amount.

• Enter hours using beginning and ending times for each entry or enter the actual hours up to two decimal places.

• Reverse completed or scrapped quantities that you have entered by entering the quantity as a negative value.

6.9.1.7 Hours and Quantities

To process the hours and quantities that you have entered and to create journal entries for the costs, you must run the Hours and Quantities Update batch program. This program updates the Work Order Routing table (F3112) and creates journal entries. The total cost of each routing is split into separate journal entries, based on the percentage of the routing that is covered under a contract. After you run this program, you cannot make changes.

You can run the Hours and Quantities Proof program (R31322) before running W.O. Hours and Quantities Update (R31422) to review and correct any errors.

Note: In the processing options of the W.O. Hours and Quantities Update program, you must activate the SWM processing option 1, Create SWM Journal Entries, for the system to create journal entries.

6.9.1.8 Work Order Workfile Generation Program

Generating the work order workfile enables you to:

• Bill customers for services that you provided to them.

• Pay service providers for services that they provided to the company.

The system retrieves the billing information from the parts and routing detail lines.

This table lists the tables that the system accesses when you generate the work order workfile:

Table	Description
Work Order Master File (F4801)	Contains general work order information.
Service Order Extension (F4817)	Contains work order information that is specific to Service Management.
Work Order Parts List (F3111)	Contains general parts list information.
Parts Extension (F31171)	Contains parts list information that is specific to Service Management.
Work Order Routing (F3112)	Contains general routing and instruction information.
Routing Instructions - Extension (F31172)	Contains information about routings and instructions that is specific to Service Management.

This table lists the tables that the system creates or updates when you generate the work order workfile:

Table	Description
Billing Details Workfile (F4812)	When you run the Work Order Workfile Generation program in final mode, the system creates table F4812 records for each detail line within the Work Order Parts List table (F3111) and Work Order Routing table (F3112). When you create payable records to pay a service provider, the system creates a record within the billing details workfile for the covered expense and a separate record for the noncovered expense.
Parts Extension (F31171)	Based on the processing involved, it is possible for the system to update these fields: Date Billed Date Paid Actual Billable Unit Actual Payable Unit Actual Billable Amount Actual Payable Amount
Routing Instructions - Extension (F31172)	Based on the processing involved, it is possible for the system to update these fields: Date Billed Date Paid Actual Billable Rate Actual Payable Rate Actual Billable Amount Actual Payable Amount

6.10 Billing and Paying Work Orders

This section provides an overview of work order billing and paying and discusses how to:

• Generate the work order workfile.

• Set processing options for the S/WM Work Order Workfile Generation program (R1775).

6.10.1 Understanding Work Order Billing and Paying

The typical billing and payment process includes accumulating work orders to bill and pay, creating and printing invoices, and recording journal entries for income and receivables. The typical payment process includes accumulating work orders for payment, creating and printing invoices, and recording journal entries for payables.

Invoices are based on billable work orders, and the first step in the billing process is to accumulate the billable work orders. Vouchers are based on payable work orders, and the first step in the payment process is to accumulate payable orders.

When you perform work order billing, you create accounts receivable entries for customers who you invoice. You also create accounts payable entries for service providers whom you pay. Based on a processing option in the SWM Work Order Workfile Generation program (R1775), you can select whether to process billable and payable records at the same time or perform one process before the other.

When you run Work Order Workfile Generation, the system gathers the work orders that are eligible for billing and payment from the Work Order Parts List table (F3111), the Parts Extension table (F31171), the Work Order Routing table (F3112) and the Routing Instructions - Extension table (F31172) and then creates Billing Detail Workfile records (F4812).

For multicurrency environments, the system retrieves currency information from these sources:

Source	Currency Information
When billing for a part or routing	Domestic: Currency code of the company to which the work order business unit belongs. Foreign: Currency code of the customer within the Customer Master.
When paying for a part or routing	Domestic: Currency code of the company to which the work order business unit belongs. Foreign: Currency code of the service provider within the Supplier Master.

6.10.1.1 Customer Invoice Processing

When you generate the work order workfile using SWM Work Order Workfile Generation (R1775), the system gathers the orders that are eligible for billing from these tables:

• Work Order Master File (F4801).

• Service Order Extension (F4817).

• Work Order Parts List (F3111).

• Parts Extension (F31171).

• Work Order Routing (F3112).

• Routing Instructions - Extension (F31172).

The system then creates records in the Billing Detail Workfile table (F4812).

After you generate the work order workfile, you must continue the standard billing process, which includes:

• Generating the invoice workfile using the Service Billing Invoice Generation program (P48121).

• Printing invoices using the Invoice Print Selection program (R48504).

• Generating the Invoice Journal using the Journal Generation program (R48131).

• Creating accounts receivable (AR) and GL entries using the Create A/R Entries program (R48199).

• Posting the AR and GL entries using the General Ledger Post Report program (R09801).

Run the Service Billing Invoice Generation program to group workfile transactions and assign invoice numbers. When you run the this program, the system summarizes one or more workfile transactions into pay item records. Pay items are the billing lines that make up the total amount of a specific invoice. The system stores pay item information in the Invoice Summary Work File table (F4822), and updates the workfile transaction records with the new invoice information and the sequence and summarization key information.

After you run the Service Billing Invoice Generation program, you can print invoices for customers for services provided to them.

To complete the billing process, you must create accounts receivable and general ledger entries. You first create preliminary accounts receivable and general ledger entries using the Journal Generation program (R48131). When the system creates preliminary accounts receivable and general ledger entries, you can review the resulting reports, the Billing Journal Register and the Invoice Journal Generation Report, to determine whether the entries were generated with errors.

After you ensure that no errors are within the batch, you can create the final accounts receivable entries, using Create AR Entries, and then post invoices to the general ledger.

6.10.1.2 Service Provider Voucher Processing

When you generate the work order workfile using SWM Work Order Workfile Generation (R1775), the system gathers the orders that are eligible for payables and creates records in the Billing Detail Workfile (F4812). After you generate the work order workfile, you must continue the standard voucher process, which includes:

• Generating the voucher workfile using the Voucher Generation program (R48122).

• Printing vouchers.

• Generating the Voucher Journal using the Journal Generation program (R48131).

• Creating AP and GL entries using the Billing Vouchers A/P - G/L Journal Generation program (R48197).

• Posting the AP and GL entries using the General Ledger Post Report program (R09801).

Run the Voucher Generation program to group workfile transactions and assign voucher numbers. The system stores pay item information in the Voucher Summary table (F4823). In addition, the system updates the workfile transaction records with the new voucher information and the sequence and summarization key information.

To complete the voucher process, you must create accounts payable and general ledger entries. You first create preliminary accounts payable and general ledger entries using the Journal Generation program (R48131). After the system creates preliminary accounts payable and general ledger entries, you can determine whether the entries were generated with errors by reviewing the associated reports, the Journal Edit Register and the Journal Audit Report. After you ensure that the batch contains no errors, you can create the final accounts payable entries by running the Create A/P Entries program (R48197). You then post vouchers to the general ledger, by running the standard General Ledger Post Report program.

6.10.2 Generating the Work Order Workfile

6.11 Working with Work Orders on an iPad

This document provides an overview of field service work orders and discusses how to:

• Work with work orders on an iPad.

• Set processing options for field service work orders.

6.11.1 Understanding Field Service Work Orders

Field technicians often travel to a site to perform service and do not have access to a desktop or laptop but may be able to connect wirelessly on an iPad. They must be able to see their work assignments, know where they must go to perform the service, know the contact information of the service location, understand the nature of the problem, and have access to information that will help them perform the service. They must be able to access all of this information easily from the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system. They must also be able to update the status of the work easily with minimal or no typing.

The Field Service Work Order application for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne was built to run on an iPad to support these unique needs of field service technicians while leveraging the features of an iPad. The Field Service Work Order application includes:

• The Field Service Inquiry program (P48100).

• The Field Service Revisions program (P17100).

You use these programs to review work orders and associated information, such as labor details, parts details, address book details, and so on. You set a processing option to view either service or equipment type work orders, depending on whether you are performing maintenance on customer-owned equipment or company-owned equipment. You can also set a processing option to view only work orders that are assigned to you. You can view information helpful in performing the service through media objects (text, documents, images, and so on). The system enables you to view maps of customer and service locations.

6.11.1.1 Updating the Status of a Work Order

You can easily update the status of a work order after you have finished working on it using push button functionality. When you choose this button, the system advances the work order status with the next status based on the work order activity rules and displays the text of the next status on the button. If work order activity rules are not applicable for your work order or if the status is complete and no more statuses are available, then this button does not appear.

Note: If you get an error message in the Field Service Revisions program that the selected work order is locked, that means the work order is opened for editing in another program (record reservation).

6.11.2 Forms Used to Work With Work Orders on an iPad
