Batch Reassigning Work Orders

When a technician or another user leaves your organization or changes job responsibilities, the work orders that are assigned to him may need to be reassigned to another user. MaintenanceDirect provides a feature that allows you to batch reassign those work orders without having to individually reassign each individual work order.
