Question 56 - Certified Field Service Consultant discussion

Service Appointments are records that track the date, time, duration, and assigned resource for a work order or work order line item[117]. Creating a new Service Appointment for each site visit would allow Universal Containers to track when Technicians need to visit a customer site multiple times to resolve an issue by creating different service appointments for the same work order and capturing notes and status updates for each service appointment. Creating a new Child Work Order for each site visit would create unnecessary records and complexity. Child Work Orders are work orders that are related to another work order as part of a hierarchy[118]. Creating a new Product Consumed for each site visit would not track the site visits. Products Consumed are records that track the products or parts that are used or installed during a service appointment[119]. Creating a new Work Order Line Item for each site visit would not track the site visits. Work Order Line Items are records that track specific tasks or products related to a work order[120].
