Navigation to this function
Create new orders or edit existing ones using this form. Orders can be created manually (one-off orders), but in most cases they are generated automatically from order schedules (tasks), which are responsible for the regular triggering of orders as part of a maintenance plan. Once a new order has been created, it is assigned a ticket number and runs through the approval and execution workflow until it is completed and accepted. Use the "Reports" button in the workbar to call up the work slip for the order as a PDF document.
