Convert to Series
Solution No. 58
This action will convert a specified record to a Series. The record must be a OneTime for its RecurrenceType for the service to be converted. If RecurrenceInfo is not currently in the record you are converting to a series, a default Basis of Project with minimum information will be created.
So Where Would We Use It?
Imagine a prospect calls in requesting to schedule some „emergency maintenance?. You create a work order and rush out to complete the job. The client being very impressed has now requested the same work be scheduled on a monthly basis. Simply take the work order and convert it to a "series".
