Open Work Orders |
The Open Work Orders tab for projects enables you to mass-create make ready or prepare for service (PENDING status) work orders for all equipment units being procured under the project. To manually create the work orders in WAIT FOR EQUIPMENT status, post-date the work order to the date/time that you anticipate that the equipment will be ready to be removed from service.
Tip: To limit the display of information in the grid and maximize performance, use the filter. You can sort on project ID, requesting user ID, originating location ID, destination location ID, budget year, purchase year, status, and purpose, among other values. You can use the sort button to specify a sort sequence. If you do not specify a sort sequence, the IDs are listed in descending project ID order.
The field in the top section of this tab defines the data that displays.
Project ID
Identifier of the project currently selected in the grid or that you are defining. This field has a list box. The project description displays to the right of the ID.
The bottom section of this tab provides a checkbox, Open work orders for all equipment units on project equipment list. If there is a check in this field when you process information on this screen, work orders are opened for all new equipment IDs specified on the Equipment Requested tab. When this field is checked and a work order is opened, it sets the work order to have the repair reason listed in the Repair reason to be used on work orders for project field if one is set and valid on the Project Templates screen, More Info tab.
