Use this activity to connect a sales part to a maintenance organization. A sales part can represent a rate for a certain job, e.g. emergency service, or time, e.g., overtime. A maintenance organization can have more than one sales part connected to it and one sales part must be defined as default. The default sales part will appear automatically when selecting a maintenance organization on a work task line, preparing a PM action or creating a work task template. The default sales part will also appear when reporting in time on a work order without specifying resource group on the time report line.
The connection of a sales part to the maintenance organization has the same purpose as the connection of a sales part to a resource group. However, the sales part (and hourly rate) for maintenance organization will only be used if a resource group is not defined on a work task line or time report line. This allows for simpler preparation and reporting of work orders, not forcing the you to select a resource group to plan the revenue and prepare a work order for invoicing.
