A work order is a customer’s request for work or services. A servicing company handles the request according to the agreed pricing terms.

In a work order, the Main tab contains general details including customer, servicing company, work description, and pricing terms.

To learn more about the Main tab fields, see the following table:

Field Description

  • Materials are recorded as indirect product costs. This applies if the Consumption GL account has Account type set to Manufacturing overheads.
  • Materials consumption is recorded as other consumption instead of expenses or indirect product costs. This applies if the Register expense checkbox is cleared or if the Consumption GL account has Account type other than Administrative expenses or Other expenses (allocation to Income summary accounts), or Manufacturing overheads.
