Routing

Routing tasks are directional tasks or processes embodied in a main task. The Routing tab allows you to define default routing tasks and sub-tasks for each Work Task record. Then, when a main task is selected in a work order, all the associated routing tasks and sub-tasks will be auto-populated into the work order. The routing tasks will appear in the top portion of the Routing tab in a work order while the sub-tasks will appear in the lower portion (Work Steps grid).

Sub-tasks will also appear in the Tasks/Resources tab (Tasks grid) of the work order; however, not all sub-tasks appear at once. Initially only the sub-tasks associated with the "pending" or active routing task will appear. Then, as each routing task is closed and a new one activated, new sub- tasks will be added to the grid.

Note: Sub-tasks from previous routing tasks will remain in the Tasks grid (i.e. old sub-tasks will not be removed from the grid even after the routing task is closed).

Use the links below to:

  1. Define routing tasks (simultaneous tasks and work flow)
  2. Add routings tasks (using the Work Flow Steps grid)
  3. Associate sub-tasks (using the Work Flow Steps Sub-Tasks grid)
