Overview

Overview

This alert is designed to notify users of any service calls that remain uninvoiced beyond a specified threshold of W days. The purpose is to prompt a review of these calls to determine whether they should remain open or be closed/cancelled.

The alert can be set to report only those technicians with the ZCJFieldTech property set to Yes, or can trigger for all technicians. The alert can be sent to the technician, the technician's manager, the sales rep, or the creator of the call. The sales rep linking is dependent on ID320.

 

Run Schedule:  Monday and Thursday mornings

Type of Output: Email
