Prepare for weekly visit (pre-plan some screens and flow of operations). Visit: Thru 08/26/99 (Possibly all week ( I am pushing for it)).

Service orders: Independent operation from normal account connects and disconnects, but available from service order window. Hot keys (or buttons) to scheduling.

I haven't decided to do this as an independent method or allow this functionally to all methods.

Need to discuss cosmetic area. Visit: Several days testing (mid - month service changes, billings, and se~'ice orders / scheduling). Finish: This gives extra time (I don't think I will be needing).
