Operations Menu - Work Sheet - Open Work Order

This page describes the 'Open Work Order' function on the Operations menu in the Work Sheet record window. If you are using iOS or Android, the 'Open Work Order' function is on the Tools menu (with 'wrench' icon).

When viewing a Work Sheet, you can use the 'Open Work Order' function if you need to look at the originating Work Order. When you select the function from the Operations menu (Windows/macOS) or Tools menu (iOS/Android): the Work Order will be opened in a new window.

As a Work Sheet and its originating Work Order will be connected through the Link Manager facility, you can also open the Work Order from the Link Manager in the Work Sheet.

This function will be most useful in cases where you have created more than one Work Sheet from a Work Order, there is insufficient stock of spare parts to complete the repair and you would like to create a single Purchase Order for the spare parts on all the Work Sheets that are connected to the Work Order. After opening the Work Order, you can raise a Purchase Order for new stock using the 'Purchase Order' function on the Create menu (Windows/macOS) or + menu (iOS/Android) in the Work Order. If you have only created a single Work Sheet from a Work Order or don't need to include all Work Sheets in a single Purchase Order, you don't need to create the Purchase Order from the Work Order and instead you can do so from an individual Work Sheet.

Work Orders are described here.
