This information applies to job creation where the qualifications of the employee assigned to the job are checked against the qualifications needed for the job type. The job type requirements are set in [[:5000manual:5800utilities:5812codes|Job Type Codes Setup]] and added to the job on the [[:5000manual:5200jobcards:5210joblogging|Job Logging]] tab). If they do not match the warning will appear:

Setting training qualifications is useful in a business employing many people with varying skill sets which services customers with rigid service demands or specialized equipment, requiring specific qualifications from its service personnel.

**Note**: Whilst a warning will be displayed if an employee is assigned on the job card lacking the qualifications for the job type, this relationship is not rigidly monitored. TSM will allow the creation of a Contact with a default job type requiring different qualifications to those of the default Technician. When a job is created for such a contact, once again no warning will be displayed. TSM assumes that the user will assign appropriate default technicians and job types when setting up the contact.
