Hi Dave,

A service order contains operations that describe the individual work steps.

A task to perform within a company.

The order specifies:

Which task to perform

When the task must be performed

What is needed to perform the task

How the order costs are to be settled

The following notification types exist in the standard system:

Maintenance notifications, including malfunction and activity reports and maintenance requests

Service notifications, including problem notifications, service requests, and activity reports

Quality notifications, including complaints against the vendor, customer complaints, and internal problems

I hope this is helpful.

Regards

Olivia
