A guided walkthrough of how to create and manage Labor Kits
ATA Codes
The ATA code system is a database that allows a user to easily store and use discrepancies based on a code.
Labor Kits
Labor kits are an easy way to frequently use the same multiple items along with appropriate parts for those items.
Jump to Section:
Note: If planning to use the 'Show as One Item' display option for the labor kit, add the verbiage that should be displayed on the invoice/estimate to the discrepancy of item #1 of the kit.
Create New Labor Kit or ATA Code from Existing Work Order
To save a Labor Kit or ATA Code from Items (discrepancies, corrective actions, and parts) on an existing Open Work Order (if W/O has been closed, it will need to be reopened before the new Labor Kit/ATA Code can be created), select Add ATA Code or Add Labor Kit from the + in the top right of the section. From the Create Labor Kit from Items screen, enter the Name, Description, Start at Item #, and Last Item # to be added. This will automatically create a new Labor Kit or ATA code from the existing item(s).
Proceed to Config > Labor Kits & ATA Codes, pull up the newly created kit, and add any additional items, limits, or media.
