Releasing All of a Work Order Task’s Holds

This section explains how to manually release all holds for a work order task. All active holds on the task will be released.

Releasing a hold removes any restrictions on work order task actions that were in place as a result of the hold. Work order task holds can be released manually or at a set date and time. An APM scheduled action releases any holds that have exceeded their release date. Date-based holds can also be manually released at any time.

If a hold has the option Only [employee name] is allowed to modify or manually release this hold selected, only the hold creator, or employees with special authority can release the hold.
