If a work order needs to be completed by a carpenter with a hand saw, don’t assign it to
an electrician with a voltmeter! Add products required to work types, work orders, and work
order line items to ensure that the assigned service resource arrives with the right
equipment.

Adding required products to work types saves you time and keeps your business processes
consistent. Work orders and work order line items inherit their work type’s required
products.
For example, if all light bulb replacement jobs require a ladder and a light bulb, add the
ladder and light bulb as required products to your Light Bulb Replacement work type. When it’s
time to create a work order for a customer’s light bulb replacement, applying that work type to
the work order adds the required products.
Here’s how to add a required product to a work order, work order line item, or work type.
