A 'Project' is any number of associated Service Orders, Service Requests, Work Orders, Incidents, or Incident Requests. Say for example, that a User's organization has expanded and needs to retrofit an older building with all new Services and Equipment. Such an endeavor could require multiple stages, dozens (or more) Orders and may take place over weeks, if not months; these activities could be compiled and addressed as a whole – as a Project. The PCR-360 application empowers Users to do just that.

Building a Project
Navigate to the Service Desk Projects grid by clicking Main > Service Desk > Projects. Select the button on the Grid Toolbar above the Projects grid (shown in the above image).

The critical function here, however, is to consolidate several Service Desk items under one Project. This can be accomplished using the 'Associated Items' tab in the data entry form.
...
By clicking the
button located immediately above the 'Associated Items' grid, the user is presented with a comprehensive list of all the Service Requests, Service Orders, Work Orders, and Incidents currently in the system (see image above). By checking the boxes flush to the left margin of the Service Desk items the User wishes to associate, Users, can choose to "bundle" as many Service Desk items together as desired....
When the appropriate boxes have been satisfactorily checked, click the button at the bottom of the 'Add Associations' form. The new Association will appear in the 'Associated Items' grid. Once the User saves the new Project, the Project will appear on the original Service Desk Projects grid.
...
When on the Project Form, the tabs are displayed immediately below the input fields in the data entry form. By accessing these tabs, Users can see all the associated data that is related to the Project and edit the data that is specific to the Project. The 'Tabs' associated with Projects are Associated Items, Equipment, Contacts, Charges, Labor, Activity/Remarks, Email Thread, Attachments, and User Defined Fields.

Editing a Project
Projects can be edited in the same manner as all other Service Desk items. To edit a Project, simply double-click an item on the Service Desk Projects grid.

...
For example, if an iPhone is listed on the Projects Equipment grid, with an SD number of SO201200232, the Equipment must be changed on Service Order SO201200232. Double-clicking on the associated Service Order on the 'Associated Items' grid will open the Service Order for editing.
