3. The **Request Details** windows appears if you select the button from a **CMDB Item Search** window, and the **Call Logging** window appears if you are working in a **Service Action Details** window. The windows displayed will be based on the template specified in the Service Action Details window.
4. Complete the details, specifying the quantity if you wish to order multiple quantities.
5. Save the details, by selecting **Internal**, **External** (for Calls), **Defer**, **Save** or **Submit** (for Requests).
6. The service order is created as if it was ordered from the Self Service Portal, including the automatic allocation of a unique number.

## Ordering multiple quantities <a href="#ordering" id="ordering"></a>

You can order multiple quantities of the same service action, assuming that the service action and your permissions allow it.

{% hint style="danger" %}
The **Service Order Item Quantity** field must be added to the Call/Request screen set in **Designer** and be editable if the Service Action has **Order Multiple Quantities** selected.
