Why Acumatica for Your Service Business?
Scheduling, Dispatching and Call Center
Scheduling the right people at the right time with the right skills to perform work efficiently is handled quickly with Acumatica Field Service Management. Quickly capture service needs and access customer information, product history, and resources required to shorten time between call receipt and job assignment.
Mobile Service Management
Keep your staff members connected through any device with a browser or with the native mobile Android and Apple iOS (iPad) app. They will be able to access service information and customer data from anywhere at any time.
Service Contract Management
Recurring service contracts are a significant source of revenue. Visibility on renewal dates for each contract helps preserve the revenue. Dashboards can alert the service team of expiring contracts. Your team can create and manage multiple service schedules per customer and fine-tune appointments using the Schedule Calendar Board for staff and resources.
Equipment Maintenance
Records the complete history of the equipment or machine installed at each customer’s site and tracks repair parts in stock. With Acumatica’s integration of sales and service stores the equipment records through quoting, order, delivery, installation, and then service work in the field.
Route Planning
Provides a powerful tool for optimizing routes for appointments with ability to filter appointments by several different criteria. Routes are plotted in Google Maps for each service person with lists of required resources (equipment or machine).
Track Projects and Costs
Field Service Management is not just for small projects. When the installations are large (tasks, people, or equipment), all the costs (time, materials, and expense) are tracked in Acumatica Project Accounting (sold as an optional application) to the phases of the project. Compare actual project costs with original and revised budgets in real time.
