Functions in the system are a way to categorize services. They are a way of sorting basic services into a larger grouping for tracking in the legacy dashboard.
To create a function, click the Admin tab under the Job Configuration category. Find and click on the link that says Functions. Once there, click New Function on the far right above the Search Resultsbox. Give the function a Name, Description and Color.
The colors are used to track the functions in a pie graph on the legacy dashboard. So, making sure each function has a different color will make the pie graphs more decipherable.
