Simplified Job Scenarios listed below, just to help explain some of what this job consists of, in easier to understand terms:

Example 1: A customer will have an issue with their machine/product not working correctly, and will contact us either by phone or email for help. You will need to work with this customer to determine the issue, and if they need a part, you will have the defective part sent to them. If we do not have the part in stock, you will need to handle the ordering of this part from the source it comes from. It is very important to follow through and complete each task in a timely manor so that the customers are happy with the result and their issue is handled.
Example 2: A customer needs a part, this part number is already identified and in stock. You take the order for the part, process payment, or email them a payment link, then the part is shipped out by our shipping dept.
Example 3: A customer needs a part, but they can not find it listed anywhere. While most parts are already in our manuals, occasionally you will come across something without a part number in our inventory system. You will need to figure out what this part is, make a part number for it, and have it added to our inventory system, add it to the manual, and order this part from the factory.
Example 4: A customer will send an item back for return/replacement. You will evaluate this item to see if there is anything wrong with it. If not, you can re-stock this part on the shelf, and process the refund for the customer. If there is a problem with it, you will note this problem and determine if the item can be sold off at a discount, or if this item needs to be disposed of.
Example 5: You will take items that were returned and determined can be sold discounted, and list these items for sale or marketplaces such as eBay.
Example 6: A shipment comes in with spare parts that are not able to be identified by our warehouse staff. You would identify, inventory, label, and stock these parts in the appropriate location.
