Prior to Batch Closing Work Orders
To maximize the reporting capabilities of Work Order, it is important to be sure the work orders you close are not missing key information such as Craft, Purpose Code, Budget Code, etc. You can utilize the Advanced Search feature in Work Order to quickly find work orders with missing information by selecting the --Blank-- filter found in many of the search criteria boxes. This will allow you to easily find and fix work orders before batch closing.

- To batch close work orders, click on the Work Order link under the Information Analysis section on your home page.
