      This page is for MYOB Acumatica consultants

      Check all changes in a test environment before taking them live. Make sure all related features still work as expected and that your data is unaffected.

      Some companies that use the field service module may also sell products that need regular servicing, such as machinery. These products need to be created in the system as Target Equipment to keep track of who they were sold to.

      4. Create a Sales Order for the Stock Item you created above. In the Equipment action field, select “Selling Model Equipment”:
      5. Ship, invoice and release the SO Invoice. Once the SO Invoice is released, a Target Equipment is automatically created and linked to the SO Invoice:
      6. On the Equipment screen, you can see that the equipment now contains information related to the sales, such as Customer, sales date, location, etc.
