Providing Additional Work Instructions in Work Order

In certain business cases, you can provide specific work instructions related to a work order. These instructions can be provided in the Additional Work Instructions subtab of a work order record. However, to enable this subtab, check the WIP box under the Primary Information section.

To define additional work instructions:

1. In the Additional Work Instructions subtab:

   1. In the Work Instructions column, enter the instructions as per the sequence number to perform the steps to complete an operation.

   2. In the URL column, provide a URL link for the operator’s reference. You can enter a URL that contains audio, video, or image.

   3. Check the box in the Print Image column to print the image (if URL provided in step 2 contains image) in the traveler report.

   4. (Optional) Check the box in the Inactive column if you do not want a sequence to be considered.

   5. Click Add.

   6. Repeat steps 1 to 4 to add multiple steps.

   7. Click Save.

Note:

There are certain limitations for the images to be printed in the traveler report.

• You can upload an image URL in two ways:

  • Upload the image to the file cabinet and add that file URL in the URL column.

  • Copy the image address from any site image (right click on image’s copy image address).

    • You must copy the proper address. When you click on the URL link, it should directly open the image.

    • If a URL link has multiple images, the images will not display.

• Image type must be .png or .jpg format.

• The SuiteApp supports 24-bit color depth images in the PDF report while rendering the images from the file cabinet. NetSuite does not support images with other color depth.

• While uploading images in the file cabinet, check the Available Without Login box to display the images in the report.

Note:

Following are the points applicable to the Additional Work Instructions subtab:

• To access the Additional Work Instructions subtab, check the permissions provided for the Additional Work Instructions Subtab custom record. For more information, read Creating or Customizing Roles and Permissions to Use Work Instructions and Traveler SuiteApp.

• The additional work instructions of a work order with their associated images will be printed in the Work Instructions and Traveler report.
