# Book a Technician-Generated Lead job from an incoming call

## Overview

If you’ve [set recall, warranty, and lead guides](/v1/docs/set-recall-warranty-and-lead-job-booking-guides), you can book a new job as a *Lead*, automatically giving the technician responsible for generating the *Lead* credit. If the lead was generated by a service technician while on a job, the new job is automatically linked to the original service job.
