To reassign a work order to another user, you will first need to be on the Schedule feature page. For more information on how to access this page, please see the Schedule List page.

There are two different ways to reassign a work order to another user:

  1. When you use the "Users" drop-down in the Schedule "Timeline" tab, the "Composite" tab, or Schedule feature page, the Dispatch Work Orders pop-up window will appear:
  2. In the Schedule "Calendar," "Timeline," or "Composite" tabs, you can also drag & drop a work order to a new user. For more information on how to accomplish this action, please see the Schedule List page.

When the Dispatch Work Orders pop-up window appears, you can:

  • Choose to keep the existing user.
