Works Order Breakdown from Rental Orders

This feature allows you to create a works order directly from an Order that has an order item that has been Booked Out, without affecting its availability. This is ideal for managing breakdowns or repairs while keeping your rental commitments intact.

When to Use It

Use this feature when:

  • You need to log a breakdown or initiate repair work on an Order.

  • You want to track parts, labour, and assign a fitter โ€” all within the rental workflow.

How to Create a Works Order Breakdown

  1. Open the Rental Order containing the item.

  2. Locate the Booked Out item.

  3. Click the Order Item Actions Menu (โ‹ฎ).

  4. Select Works Order Breakdown.

  5. A pop-up will happen asking for some information:

  6. A new Works Order will be created and linked to the item.

๐Ÿ”’ Note: This does not affect the itemโ€™s availability โ€” your rental booking remains active.

Managing the Breakdown Works Order

Once created, you can:

  • Add parts and labour as needed.

  • Track progress just like any other works order.

You can access the work order again via the same actions menu on the order item.

โš ๏ธ Only one open breakdown works order is allowed per order item at a time.
