By default only a few fields are compulsory. If your team needs every work order to have, say, an asset and a photo, make those fields required.

Make a field required

1

Open settings

Click your organisation name at the top of the left sidebar, choose Settings, and scroll to Required Fields Settings.
2

Open the module

Expand Work Order, Meter, Request or Purchase Request.
3

Turn on the fields

Switch on each field people must fill in.

Work order fields you can require

Description, Category, Location, Asset, Priority, Users, Monitor Users, Teams, Zone, Sub Zone, Photos, Voice Notes, Workflow and Checklist.

Good fields to require

  • Asset: so every job lands in the asset’s history.
  • Location and Zone: so technicians know exactly where to go.
  • Photos: when you need proof of the problem or the fix.
Every required field slows down creating a work order. Require only what you will actually use, or people will start skipping work orders altogether.
