  1. The item and at least one service code that matches the engineer, if he/she is available.
  2. The item that matches the engineer, if he/she is available.
  3. The item group and at least one service code that matches the engineer, if he/she is available.
  4. The item group that matches the engineer, if he/she is available.
  5. If none of five engineers was found, the system checks in the Engineer table if there are any other available engineers.
  6. The proposed engineers are sorted on skill level.
Engineer
If a planned service order was selected, you can select a proposed engineer or you can add an engineer (a maximum of five at a time) to be selected. Only those engineers that are selected using a selection field in front of the engineer name are updated. To assign work time for an engineer you must select an engineer from the previous panel. If an engineer was selected, the following information is displayed:

  • The name of the engineer.
  • The warehouse to which the engineer belongs, from the Service engineer table.
  • The basic time level from the Service engineer table.
