Creating Work Orders for a Closed Location

Closed locations or locations no longer in operation, are not invisible for users to create work orders. When this happens, a closed date is added or exists on the location details page under Locations & Provider Assignments. If the need to create work orders ever arises for closed locations, there is a feature allowing users to do so. This is where all closed locations become visible under the location search for users to select. It is beneficial for repair such as replacing boarded windows or cutting trees around the location.

Info

This is an optional feature. To enable, please contact your CSM representative.
