Job ID Suggestions & History
Overview
When creating a new Job Operation, a Job ID will have to be assigned to the job. The job ID usually follows Job ID Standard Format which consists of customer code, customer number code, current year, and running number. The system has features in place to ease the process of determining the right Job ID for the job.
Job ID Suggestions
When creating a new Job Operation and Client
is selected, clicking on Job ID
field will trigger a pop up with Job ID suggestions for this job.
In above screenshot, the previous Job ID for this client is PGBK-24/5/1(1). Since this is a Job ID with a bracket at the end, the system suggests two possible next Job IDs - PGBK-24/5/2 in case it's a new job, or PGBK-24/5/1(2) in case it's a job related to previous job.
This feature is turned off for client OTHERS because this client involves other branches.
Job ID History
When creating a new Job Operation, Get Job ID
button is visible at top right.
Clicking this will trigger a pop up to show Job ID history. If client is not selected, this pop up will show just latest 3 Job IDs across all clients.
If a client is selected - in this example TSET, this pop up will show latest 3 non-warranty Job IDs for this client, suggest Job ID, and automatically populate the Job ID
field with the first suggested Job ID (Job ID for client OTHERS will not be automatically populated).
If a client is selected but has no previous job - in this example ZEJ, this pop up will indicate so, suggest Job ID, and automatically populate the Job ID
field with the first suggested Job ID.
Note that warranty jobs will not be listed here because warranty jobs will reuse old Job ID with
-WJ
appended at the back.
