      Serialized Item Specs and Cost Batch

      The Spec tab within MyTime allows the user to attach and reference equipment, vehicles, and other serialized items to a work order.  This powerful feature is important in the following scenarios:

      1. Service companies that wish to track the service history for whole goods such as vehicles, small engines, air and heating systems, and other serialized goods.

      2. Sales companies that recondition trade-in units and resell them.

      3. Manufacturers that serialize the products they build or manufacture.

      4. Companies providing warranty service on their products

      The Spec tab allows the user to attach serial numbers to a task, enter stock number, enter hours or miles, and adjust serialized item specs similar to the EBMS task.  Review the following documentation for more information on using MyTime for tasks with serialized items:

      Assigning a Serial Number to a Task

      A serial number can be assigned to a task using MyTime.  Review [Inventory] Serialized Items > Attaching Work Orders to Equipment or Vehicles for instructions to add serial numbers to a work order within EBMS tasks.

      A serial number that does not already exist is considered a Service Only serial number.

      A required product ID that identifies a group of service only serialized items must be entered.  Review [Inventory] Serialized Items > Selling and/or Associating an item with a customer > Service Only Items for more information on a service only serialized item and the required settings associated with an item that was not sold to the customer.

      A serial number can be set or changed from MyTime.  Review [Inventory] Serailized Items > Attaching WOrk Orders to Equipment or Vehicles for instructions to add serial numbers to a work order within EBMS tasks.

      Serialized Item Cost Batch

      Open a task within MyTime and tap the Cost Batch tab.  This tab will only appear if the parts within the task's Billing tab is connected to a Serialized Item's cost batch.  Review Tasks > Creating Tasks > Linking Tasks to a Serialized Item for the steps needed to link a cost batch to a task.
