- The work request is now set to Closed.
- When all work requests assigned to a work order are closed, the system automatically closes and archives the work order.
Note: Closing the work order is only
possible when all work
requests assigned to it are set to Completed .
Note: To close out work orders properly, supervisors must belong to either the CALCULATED or “%” security group. This is because in the HQ and Schema databases, the fields wo.date_closed and wo.time_closed are defined with an Edit Group of CALCULATED. If you don't want to assign supervisors to the above-listed security groups, a database administrator at your site can remove the CALCULATED Edit Group from wo.date_closed and wo.time_closed fields in the ARCHIBUS Fields table.
