ServiceCallTaskResource

IMPORTANT  The SOAP API entered a limited enhancement phase in Q4 2020. Access to version 1.6 will be deactivated.

NOTE  This entity works in combination with the Service Call and Service Call-related entities. Before working with this entity, review the topic ServiceCall.

This entity describes an Autotask resource assigned to a task that is assigned to a service call. The service call task resource is the resource assigned to perform the task.

Users assign resources to a service call task through the Projects module or Dispatcher's Workshop. You can assign tasks to a service call through the Projects module, the Service Desk module, or Dispatcher's Workshop.

A ServiceCallTaskResource entity is associated with a ServiceCallTask entity and requires a ServiceCallTaskID value; for additional information, refer to ServiceCall.

Conditions and requirements

General

  • This entity will be read-only if the module with which it is associated is not active. For more information, refer to Activations.
  • Only a resource that is a primary or secondary resource on ticket or task associated with a service call can be assigned to that service call.
  • If a resource is disassociated from a ticket or task and that ticket or task was the resource's only association to the service call, then the resource must be disassociated from the service call.
  • A resource can be disassociated from a service call. This will not disassociate the resource from the task or ticket on the service call.

The resource can be re-associated with the service call at any time, as long as the resource remains associated with a task or ticket on the service call.

  • A service call with no associated tasks or tickets will have no associated resources.
  • Any resource can create service calls and associate/disassociate tasks/tickets to service calls (there does not appear to be any restriction enforced in the UI).
