PCR-360 is the web application used by OIT to bill campus and external customers for service. This tutorial was written for teams who handle their own billing in PCR-360, to introduce you to the basic mechanics of entering service orders to trigger one-time or recurring billing for services provided by your team.

To create a new service order, click the green + Add button (green):

...

  • SD Type: Service Order (should auto-populate)

  • Source: Web (should auto-populate)

  • Service Rep: this is you! (should auto-populate)

  • Description: something to identify this one-time charge or recurring service fee to the service that was provided, for instance:

    • Jira ticket #

    • Team-internal quote/project/billing code that your customer will recognize

    • Identifying details, dates, etc.

Option 1: Add one-time Charges without a Service

This is appropriate when you’re billing for only nonrecurring charges: the event or project or setup or labor happened, and now it’s done.

Charges tab

Switch to the Charges tab and click the + Add button (green) to add a Charge

...

Add New Service Desk Charges

  • Charge Action: Start (should auto-populate)

  • Charge Catalog: Select the type of charge, likely to be one of these:

    • AVEVENT - AV Event Services (Nonrecurring)

    • AVD-LABOR - AV Design Staff Time (Nonrecurring)

    • AVD-MATERIALS - AV Design Materials (Nonrecurring)

  • Charge Amount:

    • should show per unit rate for hourly or other quantified services: set the Quantity to the number of units you want to bill for; Total should auto-calculate $$ you want to bill

    • will default to $0.00 for non-quantified services; enter actual charge amount in Charge Override Amount box

  • Save New

...

(Repeat to add all charges related to this project/event/service instance.).)

Option 2: Add Charges inside a persistent Service

This is appropriate when you’re billing for recurring charges (perhaps in combination with nonrecurring) because something about the service the charges are related to persists over time.

Actions tab

Switch to the Actions tab and click the + Add button (green) to add a Service

Add New Service Desk Action

  • Action: Add (should auto-populate)

  • Service Catalog: Select the type of service, likely to be one of these:

    • Conference Room AV

    • Classroom AV

  • New Service ID: A unique name for this instance of the service type you selected (for instance, a room number: FAB 210C)

  • Save New

  • Charges tab: Switch to the Charges tab to verify default Charges or add others. Default charges configured to always start with a service of this type should already be listed. Verify or correct what’s there. Click the +Add button (green) if you want to add additional recurring or nonrecurring Charges, then follow the instructions above for adding Charges. Repeat to add all Charges related to this service instance.

  • Save
