Redrafting a Work Order

This section explains how to redraft a work order and its tasks.

The current status of the work order determines whether you can edit it. For example, if a work order is “Planned”, the system assumes that it is complete and you cannot edit the planning information. To edit planning information for a work order or task with a status of “Sent for Approval”, “Rejected”, “Planned”, “Scheduled”, “Work Started”, or “Completed”, you must redraft it. Redrafting a work order also redrafts all of the work order’s tasks. You do not have to redraft a work order to change the work order group or master work order. To edit a work order with a status of “Closed” or “Canceled”, you must reopen it. See Reopening a Work Order.

You can also redraft an individual work order task to change the planning information. You can redraft any task if the work order itself is still “In planning”. If the entire work order is “Planned”, you must redraft the entire work order. See Redrafting a Work Order Task.

After you redraft a work order, if approval is required you must re-send it for approval.

Note: If you have redrafted a work order, you will not be able to delete a planned purchase requirement if a purchase order line exists for the requirement. The buyer must first delete the purchase order line.
