This tutorial is designed to instruct you on the
options under the Production button |
|
What you will learn in this session is how to
record the production of the job using the SLICEplus software |
|
What you will see are various screen shots from
the SLICEplus software and associated notes about the screen in the notes
section at the bottom of your screen |
|
Information on how to set up the software is
covered in classes, in the SLICEplus manual, other online tutorials, and
the F1 function key online help feature |
|
|
|
|
Before we attempt to produce the job, we must
first set up the contract under the Order Job button |
|
For Job Actual versus Estimate, an Estimate for
the job would have been previously created |
|
For further information on creating an Estimate
or entering an Order Job refer to the online Tutorials for those topics |

Work Tickets, or alternatively called Service
Tickets, can be generated from either the Estimate/Bid or the Order/Job to
identify and account for operations associated with the estimate or job |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you have contracted agreements and lump sum
(set amount) bill for the month, you will probably want to use Work Tickets
from Estimates. The detail from the
tickets will come from the estimate that is associated with the job and the
Order/Invoice will just contain the monthly amount |
|
If you wish to bill on a per time basis, or from
the completed work tickets, you will want to generate the Work Tickets from
the Order. The Order will contain
all the details (list of the operations) that will appear on the work
tickets or the job |

Scenario 1 - If just Interval is used (Actual
Day is blank or 0), the dates for successive operations are scheduled the
interval value apart. For example,
an operation with a frequency of 5( you will perform the operation a total
of five times), and interval of 7 (performed 7 days apart) and a start date
of April 10, 2001 would have the following dates also scheduled; April 17,
2001, April 24, 2001, May 1, 2001 and May 8, 2001. |
|
|
|
|
Scenario 2 - If both Interval and Actual Day are
used, the Interval will be honored first followed by adding the number of
days necessary to meet the Actual Day.
For example, an operation with a frequency of 5, interval of 7, start
date of April 10, 2001 (Tuesday), and an Actual Day of Thursday would have
the following dates also scheduled; April 19, 2001, April 26, 2001, May 3,
2001 and May 10, 2001. |
|
|
|
|
Scenario 3 - For operations to be done once per
week, select the Actual Day and make the Interval 4. This means that the next operation is
only four days from the last, but the next Actual Day is still 3 days away,
making the occurrence next week and allowing time for those possible
delays. |
|
Scenario 4 - For operations to be done once
every two weeks, select the Actual Day and make the Interval 11 (7 more
than previous week). |
|
Scenario 5 - For three weeks, make the Interval
18, etc. |
