Create a work order using the finance and operations integration
Once the finance and operations integration is setup, Field Service automatically prompts the entry of specific fields related to finance and operations when creating a work order.
Create a work order
Create a work order in Field Service and fill in the required fields.
After you select the Service Account, the system filters the finance and operations projects to show projects where the customer and company are relevant to the work order. It also filters the product, service, warehouse, location, and line property fields based on the company of the selected service account.
Select a Finance and Operations project. This field aligns Field Service work orders with finance and operations projects. Once populated, this field can't be changed.
Tip
The Finance and Operations project value isn't required until the work order's System Status is set to Posted. This ensures an organization is not blocked from creating and conducting work based on whether a relevant project exists for the work order. Once selected, all relevant transactions are automatically synchronized with the selected project regardless of how many have already been recorded on the work order.
Add the products and services that are needed for the work order and that are relevant to the legal entity of the work order's service account.
If you use an Incident Type, select one that is organized to only include products and services relevant for the company of the work order.
Tip
As a best practice, consider labeling the incident types based on the company around which they've been organized.
Select Save. The system creates a corresponding subproject under the selected finance and operations project. This subproject is the record against which all transactional journals are created.
When products or services are added, journals and journal lines on the subproject for the work order are automatically created.
