Is this possible? I don't seem to see it on the editable screens.

Hello Marcelo, "Select Team" was my customized Drop Down Object that I made to display and select my team names. You would have to replace that with your customized Drop Down Object you made.

I think I got it. Now lets say I have a team with Carlos team lead, and Pedro second member, when I assign the work order I will assign it to Carlos, and when I enter the job item in the time in/out section will auto fill the employee/vendor 1 with Pedro, Didnt event get to choose the team yet. Is this the way that should work?

Glad to help! Through some customization this is definitely possible. Just make sure your new fixed asset dropdown field is in the table that the grid is based on. Post here if you get stuck with anything.  Jason

So we can keep track of all our maintenance on our trucks, mowers, blowers etc. I have all my equipment in QB as fixed assets. So I am thinking in the grid of the new work order screen I have the job item column that I can filter so only service job items will show, ...

I think I tried both methods. Currently I have a grid set up as 'list data from which table? Detached: Equipment Table' As I say I believe I also tried this by adding the fields to the customer table as well. I tried for so long to get it to work right last night I can't really remember what I tried and what I didn't! It all ...

Marcelo, To create a dropdown field, you should start in the Customize>Tables/Fields tab link. Find the table that you would like to add the dropdown field to, in this case probably the ActivityJobItems table. Click into Edit Fields... and from here the Field Type option will let you choose a new ...
