This table contains the general information about a posted service shipment. This includes the information about your customer, service order number, payment terms, response time, starting and finishing dates, currency, and so on. The data are used in the header of a posted service shipment. Within the posted shipment, the header has one or more service shipment lines linked thereto. The lines specify costs of spare parts (items), resource hours and general costs on the shipment.
The program copies the information from the Service Header table when you post the service order with the Ship or Ship and Invoice option.
Posting from the service order is not the only way for the posted service shipment to be created. If the Shipment on Invoice field in the Service Mgt. Setup window contains a check mark, the program will also produce a shipment when you post an invoice created manually.
You cannot change any of the fields on the service shipment header because the shipment has already been posted.
