About Services

The service record is used to record information about a recurring service that is being rendered to a customer, and to charge the customer for that service. Each service record contains information concerning that particular customer's service, as well as the service plan that customer is being charged under. The recurring charges for this service plan are held in a separate tab, under which additional sundry charges can be added.
