This example will explain the concepts and process of configuring non-billing based templates for use in Service Level Agreement-based job creation and updates.

 

In this example, create a new set of templates that can be used for quickly creating or updating jobs with correct Service Level Agreement (SLA) job data. The fields used will be specific to the business and data capture requirements.

 

On the ribbon, go to Tools > Setups >Projects > Actions

 

Create an Action Group Called SLA and configure to only allow execution at Action Level Only.

 

 

Create a new action called SLA-Remote linked to the Action group SLA above, and restrict the template so it can only be executed from the Action Group at Template Level.

 

 

Create a new action called SLA-Onsite linked to the Action group SLA above and restrict the template so it can only be executed from the Action Group at Template Level.

 

 

On the ribbon, go to Items and add two Items called SLA-ONSITE and SLA-REMOTE.

 

On the ribbon, go to Tools > Setups > Jobs > Job Priority and add the following:

•SLA-Low

•SLA-Normal

•SLA-High

•SLA-Urgent

 

On the ribbon, go to Tools > Setups > Jobs > Job Type and add the following:

•SLA-ONSITE

•SLA-REMOTE

 

Create the following templates via Projects > Template List.

 

 

Click Add, then configure name, and save the first template.

 

Use the Create Similar function and save the additional templates, updating each as appropriate.
