Create a Task Materials Inventory Transaction

Depending on the MobileTech setup, when you view task materials, you can also create inventory transactions for the task materials that are used during a service call. For more information about task materials, see View Task Materials

  • Your setup may instead allow you to view and/or create inventory transactions for replacement parts. See Create a Replacement Parts Inventory Transaction. (Setup allows either task materials, replacement parts, or neither.)
  • MobileTech inventory transactions do not support Microsoft Dynamics GP Inventory Lots.
  1. Open the Task Materials pane for a service call or appointment:
    • For service calls, select Service Calls. Select a service call, select More, and then select the Task Materials tab.
    • For appointments, select Appointments (or select the Appointments tab from a service call). Select an appointment and select Complete, and then select the Task Materials tab.
  2. In the Task Materials form, select the task material item to create the transaction for, and then select Add.

    If the task material is an inventory item but it isn't assigned to any of your inventory sites, the Inventory pane won't open and you'll receive a message. Contact your system administrator for assistance.

  3. In the Inventory pane, enter information in these fields.
