Executing a Technical Attribute Task from a Service Product
You can execute the Technical Attribute task added to a Work Plan associated with a Service Product. When performing the task, you can record attributes, specify task details, and mark the task as complete. The task can either have a Technical Attribute Template already assigned, or the system automatically assigns the appropriate template at runtime based on the Service Product’s installed product. For more information, see Adding Technical Attribute Template task and Adding the Assign Technical Attribute Template at Runtime task.
To execute a Technical Attribute Template task:
1. From the Home page, open a Work Order record.
2. Click the Service Products & Tasks tab.
Associated service products, service tasks, or work plans, if any, are displayed.
3. Expand a Service Product . The list of work plans and their associated service tasks added to the Service Product is displayed.
4. Click a Technical Attributes type of task.
The Technical Attributes window is displayed with the Details tab, which is divided into two sections. One section displays the attributes configured in the template, and the other displays the task details.

When you open a task, the Status is automatically set to In Progress. If you make no changes and close the task, the Status remains New.

• After you mark a task as Complete, you can no longer record attributes or modify task details.
• If the task details are saved without any changes to attribute values, the technical attributes for the Installed Product are not recorded for that point in time. At least one technical attribute must be updated to record the latest attribute values at the time of save.
