Universal Containers (UC) sell Service Contracts to their customers. One of the terms of the Service Contract determines that a UC technician will perform annual maintenance on all the customer's Assets until the contract expires.
UC would like to ensure that when a technician is sent to the customer, the maintenance work is completed in a single visit, and all covered Assets are listed on the Work Order's Service Report.

What can an administrator configure to add efficiencies into their scheduling process and mitigate administrative overhead?
