Introducing Dynamics Service Management
In challenging economic and competitive climates, it is easy to view service as a cost center.
Companies sometimes even decide to cut back on the tools to support the growth of the service business.
This pro-active service not only prevents more assets from breaking down, but it also shows the customer that they are essential. The customer relationship does not end with responding to a customer problem. Resolution is imperative in meeting Service Level Agreements with customers and maintaining a healthy partnership.

Service & Installed Base
Many customers worldwide rely on Dynamics Service Management to support their daily service business processes. Dynamics Service Management supports your service organization featuring complaints and warranty, repairs and periodic maintenance. At the same time, you have direct access to all the data you need regarding service objects, resources, contract and logistics. Dynamics Service Management is fully integrated with Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations enabling handling service requests & initiating service activities.
Service Objects
Providing service is always related to the installed base of the customer, also known as service objects. These service objects can vary from a single object to a complicated installation consisting of many objects and components in a flexible multi-level ‘as maintained’ structure.
Dynamics Service Management offers you several ways to register these objects related to the service you want to provide including a graphical object builder for the complex structures.
Service Contracts
In today’s service focused world, requirements regarding service level’s and term & conditions need to be more and more flexible, and customer focused. Service Management offers you the tools to support these increasing demands with the service contract functionality. Whether you require contract templates to simplify and standardize your service contracts or fully flexible contracts that you can build from scratch, it is all possible.
Call Centre Support
The process starts with registering the customer’s request using the service call functionality. The service calls allow you not only to log the service request from the customer but also provide direct feedback to the customer about their warranty and applicable contract. Together with the information regarding the previous service calls you can increase customer intimacy.
Dispatching and Resource Scheduling
The service call is the first step in the day-to-day process. Once the service call is created the next step in the process starts with the creation of a service task.
For this process, you can use ‘event codes’ to identify pre-defined work packages, which can forecast default hours, (spare-) parts, checklists and revenue codes (for service items) to it.
