Mobile App

Create Work Order directly from an inspection

Work Orders can have different formats and will automatically copy information from the originating inspection. Different inspection types can have one or more work order forms to choose from. When creating a Work Order, you decide the type of information to copy over.  Once created, the Connected Field treats it as another task in the system.
