Employee Parts Order

How a tech requests parts for a job, and what happens after.

How to request parts for a job, and what the system does once you submit.

How to request a part

  1. Submit the parts-request form.
  2. Use your FabTech (@fabtechsolutions.com) email and enter the ServiceM8 job number — that's what flags it as an internal job so the parts bill back to the right place.

What happens next (automatic)

  1. Anvil logs the request as FT-NNNN and sources it from the vendor.
  2. For an internal job, the priced parts (and freight) post straight onto your ServiceM8 job — which flows to the QuickBooks invoice. No hand-entry.
  3. You get a text to authorize the purchase order — reply "go FT-NNNN" to release it.

Needs John: confirm the employee-facing instruction against reality — the exact form URL techs should use, and the “@fabtechsolutions.com email + ServiceM8 job number” rule. (We own the system end-to-end; we just need the real instruction confirmed.)
