Work Order

Work Order is either a one-time job or scheduled maintenance job that occurs at regular intervals to be done at a facility or a site. It involves multiple tasks and checklists to be completed before closing the Work Order.

If you get an error when creating a Work Order, it is most likely due to the Security Operations package that is applied which deletes the Work Order and HR Case Business Objects for My Items' Configuration in the Configuration console. Reach out to your organization's administrator to fix this issue.

For more information, see Adding Customized Business Objects.
