How to create a work order

Before you start

Before creating a work order, make sure you have:

• An aircraft created in the system

• A clear understanding of the maintenance task

• Required parts available or planned

This helps ensure the work order is accurate and ready for execution.

Create a work order

Follow these steps to create a work order:

1. Go to Maintenance Planning → Work Orders
2. Click “New Work Order”
3. Select the aircraft
4. Enter the work order details
5. Add tasks or descriptions of the work to be performed
6. Set dates and priorities (if applicable)
7. Click Save

What to include in a work order

A work order should clearly define the work to be done.

Include:

• Aircraft – The aircraft the work applies to

• Description – What needs to be done

• Tasks – Specific actions or steps

• Planned dates – When the work should be carried out

• Priority – Urgency of the task

Clear work orders help ensure consistent execution and documentation.

Adding parts and resources

After creating the work order, you can:

• Reserve required parts from Inventory

• Check availability of tools and resources

• Prepare everything before starting the work

This helps avoid delays during execution.

What happens next

Once the work order is created:

• It can be executed in Production

• Technicians can log time and work performed

• Parts usage is tracked

• All actions are recorded for compliance
