When you're choosing your part need, you'll be offered options that will be similar in form/fit/function. You might want to note which one(s) are in stock and which one(s) match the best.

Note how many are available. This will help you on the next screen.

Enter your quantity needed.

Click the Add to Task button. You will have the ability to modify it on the next screen.

This screen can seem confusing at first but it's really not. Think of it this way. The basic idea is to help the technician get the right part on the machine in the most efficient manner.

The AS SELECTED TILE is going to show the default site's default location. If it doesn't show the total quantity you saw in the previous screen, click the drop down to check the other locations.

If you need to select from multiple locations, go to the FASTER LEAD TIME Tile. That may have options from multiple locations and possibly even some of the similar parts that were originally listed.

Finally, the CUSTOM Tile gives you the most options to choose from. If you want to add a part from multiple locations, you just need to add the part need more than once.
