  1. Enter the items the customer is purchasing using standard procedures.

  1. In the Item Number field, enter an interface item number (e.g. PREWIRE, INSTALL, CLEANUP) for the purpose of attaching the work order to this transaction.

  1. Since, with this method, you will be adding the parts and labor lines from the work order to the DD transaction, you do not need to enter a price in the ‘Extension’ field of the interface item to account for those costs. We recommend setting this field to ‘0.00.’
    • If you do enter a price on this interface line, do not add the parts and labor lines (corresponding to those costs) from the work order to the DD transaction. Doing so would cause the customer to be charged twice.
