The following article details how to create split orders. Split Orders are created when a (parent) work order has an uncompleted task (such as returning the yard box back to the site) and completing that task requires a new work order to be created. Split orders act the same as the work order they are split from and can be used to schedule and record servicing details.
Prerequisites
Review the following Split Order Setup article for setup requirements.
Create a Split Order
Open the Service Record you would like to create a split order from.
Select the Split Order icon from the top of the screen. Upon selection, the Split Service Record popup editor will display.
Enter a Scheduled Date to schedule the service for.
Select an Order Type from the drop down.
Select a Route for the service to be added to.
Enter any Order Notes for the driver.
Click Process Split.
Parent/Child Work Orders
Once a split order has been created, a parent/child relationship between the two records is formed. Because of this relationship, a split order can not be posted unless the parent work order is in a posted or billed status. Icons to navigate between the two records displays at the top of each work order.
