   • If anything is encountered that will prevent a work order from being closed, it will be skipped; this includes things like unissued parts and open shift details.
   • If any interactive work order close panels need to be called, the work order will be skipped, and must be closed using the regular close routine; this includes things like posting of returns, updating of the component list, entry of meter changes.
   • If a work order is locked it will not be closed.
   • If there is an expiry date PM on the work order it will not be closed since it requires entry of an expiry date.
   • The automatic creation of warranty claims will not be done.
   • If the business parameter is turned on indicating that warranty claims are required and there is no claim at the work order header level, the work order will be skipped, even if none of the lines require a claim to be generated.
   • Out-of-service logic will not be performed for work orders being closed.
   • You will not be able to bypass the consolidated billing message on the close of a billable work order.
