Q11649 - INFO: Edit/Close Work Orders

Allows you to edit or close an open work order.

 

After work on a work order is complete, information about the work order is entered (hours worked, etc...) and the work order is put in history.  You can close a work order two ways:

  • Select the work order on the calendar and click the Close button
  • Double click the job.

Next the Work Order Close Form is displayed.  Click on the individual tabs to fill in the information and then be sure you have a date in the "Date Completed" section, click the Close Work Order button on the form to close the Work Order.
