Converting Suggested Work Orders to Work Orders

Use the Suggested Work Order Queue to convert suggested work orders to open work orders. When you do this, the system populates the work order based on its associated template.

To convert a suggested work order to a work order:

1. Display the suggested work orders on the Suggested Work Order Queue screen.

2. Select the product to build or modify and use the Convert hot key to create the work orders. The system removes the product from the list.

The system first prompts you to select whether to create a work order for the short quantity or the total quantity. To select the short quantity, enter S. To select the total quantity, enter T.

Depending on your system setup, the system may prompt you to select the branch to use as the shipping and pricing branch. To accept the default, which is determined based on the product template, press Enter. Otherwise, enter a different branch.

The system displays the work order on the Work Order Entry screen. Edit the information, as needed.
