Close a work order line

1. At the EMMS main menu, click the Work Orders button. The Work Orders display screen appears.
2. Right-click on the work order and select Change. The Edit Work Order change screen appears.
3. Right-click on the line and select Close.
   • The message "Work order 99, line 9, has been closed" appears, and the status of the line (W field) changes to C.
   • If the line is closed as a regular non-sublet line, it will calculate shop supplies. If it is later re-opened and turned into a sublet, the shop supplies amount is removed from the cost field on the work order line.
   • If no actual labor hours were entered for the activity, the system assumes the estimated hours were worked. The estimated hours become the actual hours.
   • If the activity was sublet, the purchase order must be closed before the line can be closed.
   • The VMRS/task can be changed after the line is closed if the line is sublet.
   • If the line is a PM and the PM business parameter PM Completion Date to Use is set to User Supplied Date, the PM Completion Date pop-up will appear; change the date as required, then click Enter . The line will be closed.

You can close a billable work order line for a sublet even when the sublet is still "costs pending", i.e. no invoice yet.
