Releasing All Work Order Task Holds for a Site

This section explains how to release all of the work order task holds for a site. All date-based holds on the tasks owned by the site 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.

Note: You can set this action to run automatically using the Action Scheduler. See Actions That Can Be Scheduled.

To Release All Holds at a Site

From the Site window, select the Tools menu, Work Management, then Release Holds. The system reviews the work order tasks with holds and releases any that have exceeded the release date. A message is displayed for any holds that cannot be released.
