1. Open the Service Contract window and query (F3) for the service contract for which you want to define vehicle service lines.
2. Click the Vehicle Services tab and create a new record (F5).
3. Enter a brief description of the service line in the Description field.

7. Enter the time period for which this service line is valid in the Date From and Expiry Date fields.
8. Enter values in the following fields to determine how the customer should be invoiced: Invoice Rule ID, Invoice Type and Cap Price.
9. If you selected Fixed Price as the invoice type in the previous step, enter values in the Sales Part No and Price fields found under the Fixed Price Execution area. The values will be applied to the work order.
10. If the service contract as a whole is to be invoiced enter the sales part number to be invoiced in the Sales Part No field found under the Periodic Prices area. Additionally enter an alternate customer if the service contract is to be paid for by a different customer.
11. Save the information (F12).
