Some Rules on Work Order

Ø       Reservations are cancelled if a Work Order is closed.

Ø       Reorder routine does not consider the items from a closed WO.

Ø       PR generated for a WO cannot be approved if WO (with a direct issue item) requesting that item has been closed.

Ø       PO generated for a WO cannot be approved if WO (with a direct issue item) requesting that item has been closed. Anyhow while closing the WO, maximo will notify that an open PO exists for it, but will let you close the WO.

Ø       If you try closing a WO which has been referenced in an open PO, Maximo gives warning but does not force.

Ø       Even if the PO is approved, receipt is not allowed for a Closed WO.

Ø       Items cannot be issued using Inventory application to a cancelled or closed Work Order.
