Allowable Work Order Status Changes

Question & Answer


Question

Is it possible to change a Work Order Status to any other Status?

Cause

In the Work Order Change Status dialog, not all Status values are displayed at all times.

Answer


The following is a table of allowable status changes for a Work Order. Business logic dictates that some status changes are not allowed, such as changing a Work Order from Completed back to Waiting On Approval.
