Creating a shortlist of remarks for a certain asset type, and then suggesting repair products for that particular remark is a great tool to not only help you and your technicians raise accurate and consistent remarks quickly, it also helps quote and create repairs more effectively.

Step 2: Click Add Remark Type

Adding suggested products to your Remark Types
