Multiple Lines for a Service or Repair Item in a Requisition/PO

Multiple lines of a service or repair item can be added to a requisition or purchase order in Calem release R2023a available in March 2023.

For service item, each additional REQ or PO line of the same item needs to have a different cost center.
For repair item, each additional REQ or PO line of the same item needs to have a different repair WO. In the case an asset is repaired, a different asset is required.

1. Service Lines

Here are the steps to add multiple service lines for the same service item in a REQ or PO.

Create a new REQ line
Select an item of category service to add a line.
Edit the line to set a cost center before adding a line of the same service item.
Repeat the process to add additional lines for the same service.
The same process applies to PO lines.
