Adding Services

Prev Next

Use the Add Services window to add one or more services for the customer account. This window presents the available services as they were configured in the Product catalog.

You can modify the view in the Services List (right pane) by right-clicking in the pane and choosing:

  • View > Details – displays the Service ID, Charge, and Charge Cycle associated with each service.

  • View > List – removes the details.

  • View > Show Inactive Items – lets you show inactive items. By default, catalog items that are not active are hidden. To hide them again, re-select this option.

    Note

    If a default service address is defined for this customer, it is shown in the Service Address field. If a default service address is NOT defined for this customer, the Service Address field is empty.

    Note

    This window displays only services, not features.

    To add a service:

  1. Find a service that you want to add by browsing the folders in the service list. Double-click a folder in the right pane to display the service types in that folder. Use the Back button in the upper left corner to return to the previous level if necessary.

  2. Enter the quantity to add in the Quantity field.

  3. Enter the date the service is to begin in the Start Date input field.

  4. Click the ellipsis button to select a Zone.

  5. Specify the Service Address if different from the one displayed in the Service Address field. See Entering a Service Address.

  6. Check the Ignore Reservations check box, if you do not want to use reserved service numbers.

  7. Check the Choose Service Numbers check box, if you want to select your service numbers from a list of available service numbers and reserved service numbers that have not yet been assigned.

    Note

    This check box is only available if the permission is configured in your permission profile (Application > CostGuard Client > Customer Management > Customers > Catalog Items > Choose Service Number).

  8. Select the inventoried service you want to add to the order, using one of the following methods:

    • Fast Assign – either double-click on the service or right-click on the service and select Fast Assign. This adds the service with a temporary service number directly to the order list.

      You can add a service number later by editing the service (right-click on the service in the Orders section and select Edit) or use the Service Details window later in this wizard.

    • Assign – Use this if you need to use the New Service window to enter additional information such as contact, billing or tax information. This method must be used if you want to override E911 information. Right-click on the service and select Assign. This displays the New Customer Information window. This window is described in Assigning/Editing a Service. Resume with the next step in this wizard when you finish with the New Customer Information window.

      Note

      If you need to add a service address, right-click on the service in the Order section, select Service Address Associations, and add the desired service address. See Service Address Associations for more information.

      Note

      View Configuration is only enabled for discounts that have been configured.

  9. Use the Create Service Detail Pages check box to specify whether to display or bypass the Service Details windows. One instance of this window will be displayed for each service you add to the order.

    This is checked by default. The Service Details window lets you enter a service number, billing number, and attributes related to the service (if any). If you do not need to enter this information at this time, uncheck this box to bypass Service Details.

  10. When you are done adding services, click Next. This displays the Service Details or Add Service-Level Features window depending on whether or not you checked Create Service Details Page.
