Specifying the Type of MO
Three basic types of MOs each play a slightly different role in a service organization:
• MOs with a call
• MOs for inventory replenishment
• Expensed MOs
How you fill out the MO header determines the type of MO you create. Header information differs for each type. After you create the MO, you cannot change its type. For example, if you create an MO without a call, you cannot go back later and add one.
Note: If you are using the Project Realization Module, you can create MOs for project activity orders (PAOs). You can specify either a PAO or a call in the Order Ref field of the MO header. When you specify a PAO, different frames display in Material Order Maintenance.
