Work Orders form the heart of WebTMA transactions. A Work Order can be created whenever you need to track work done, such as regular or preventive maintenance, special projects, or repairs caused by vandalism. If you include the following information on the Work Order window, it is also tracked on the Costs Tab of the related records (for example, Building, Equipment, Floor, etc.):
- labor costs
- material costs
- other charges
- billing information
In WebTMA, Work Orders are either
- Space-related
or
- Item-related
You select the focus of the Work Order. If you choose a location such as Building or Area, the Work Order is space-related. If you select a maintenance-worthy item such as a piece of Equipment, the Work Order is item-related.
When you select an item, the associated location is added to the Work Order by default, but you can change this on the Work Order if an item is temporarily located in another place.
