Employee Resources

A Work Order Task can include a list of employees involved in completing the activity. These records, which are referred to as Employee Resources, are used to track time and cost data related to the task.

 

Employees Grid

A Work Order Task's Employees grid lets users associate workers with that work activity. If the corresponding Task Setup record lists default Employees for the activity, the system automatically adds those people to the Task's Employees grid whenever the Task is included on a Work Order.

  • If the "Populate Resources from Lead Worker"Work Option is enabled, the system automatically adds the Work Order's Leadworker to the Employees grid for each Task. This occurs only if the Task's Status is less than 950.
  • If the "Populate Resources from Crew" Work Option is enabled, the system will add the Employees in the Task Crew (if applicable) to the Employee grid. (Default Crews for a Task are established in the Work Crew Setup module.)
  • If the "Delete Unused Employees and Equipment on Closed Work Orders"Work Option is enabled, the system will delete any Employee resources on a closed Work Order who do not have Units, Comments, or Descriptions associated with them. Such deletions occur as part of Lucity's nightly processes.
  • If the Requires Employee Time to Close WO box is checked on the Category Setup record related to the Work Order, at least one Employee Resource must have at least one hour of time entered before the Work Order's Status can be set > 950.
