Work Orders and Tasks

A work order identifies a set of tasks that need to be done in a specific order to achieve a specific result.

You can create work orders:

  • using a form
  • from a template
  • by copying an existing work order

Subject Data

Note: If you are adding objects to a work order and you want the object to appear in the work exchange, you need to add the object as Subject Data. When you add an object to a work order as Subject Data, you are saying that the work order exists as a result of the related subjects.

You will be prompted with the following dialog when you add any of the above objects to a work order. Be sure to select yes, make this a subject data relationship, if you want this object to display in the work exchange.

Note: If it is an approval work order the subjects also have to be related to the approval task. Then, when that step / task is completed, the subjects are approved in AssetWise.
