34 Work Order Maintenance

A Work Order is a request to take some action (perform a task) on an item. The item may be on the current sale transaction at the register, or it may be a previously- purchased item.

Work Order tasks may be organized into logically related categories. For example, some tasks may be related to jewelry, while others are related to automotive parts. Vendors who perform the work must be defined and associated with a store location because it's possible that a vendor may offer service only within a restricted geographic area.

After a Work Order has been created, the information in the Work Order account is accessible from the Work Order Maintenance function to track, update, and maintain Work Order accounts.

Note: Refer to Work Order Transactions for information about setting up Work Orders at the POS.
