Adding child work orders to a parent work order - HxGN EAM - 12.0.1 - Help - Hexagon

Create one or more work orders that are considered children of another work order to identify the work orders as children of the parent. In some cases, the child work orders are dependent on the parent work order, which means that the parent work order cannot be completed until all child work orders have a system Status of Completed.

1. Select Work > Work Orders.

2. Select the work order for which to add child work orders, and then click the Children tab.

   If the selected work order is a multiple equipment work order or MEC work order, then the system protects all fields on the page, and they cannot be updated.

3. Click Add Child WO.

4. Specify this information:

   Child WO - Specify the work order number to associate with the parent work order. The system automatically populates the child work order description, Type, Status, Equipment, Equipment Org., and Equipment Type.

   Dependent - Dependent is automatically selected. Clear the check box to indicate that the child work order is not dependent on the parent.

   

   • If Dependent is selected and the installation parameter EVTCASCD is set to NO, the parent Work Order cannot be completed unless all of its child work orders are completed.

   • If Dependent is selected and the installation parameter EVTCASCD is set to YES, completing the parent work order will also complete the Child WO.

5. Click Submit.
