Overview

Overview

Alert ID471 and ID764 are very similar in set up, the difference in the alerts is with the attachment sent with the email to the dealer contact. ID471 sends a copy of the service invoice with the call details. ID764 sends a more detailed service call report. It's recommended to use one alert or the other, but not both.

This alert identifies recently closed service calls with parts information for equipment that are marked as 'Ship Ins' on the equipment record and sends the call details to the originating dealer. There are a few requirements to use this alert; the first is that the originating dealer must be set up as a customer record in e-automate, with the contact at the dealership set in a custom property. The contact set in the custom property is the contact that will be sent the call details. The equipment record needs to have a separate custom property set up to specify the ship in dealership.
