 2.1 Work Overview

Start your work by clicking on the ORDERS icon (wrench) on the outer left of the WorkHeld Mobile app. You can switch between a list view, the view for Standing Orders and unplanned work as well as a calendar view via the tab bar in the upper right corner.

In the list view you will find all Projects / Cases sorted by date and time. On the map, the locations of the Projects / Cases are marked with a small dot.

The points on the map show you where the different Projects / Cases are planned - the colour of the flags next to the Project / Case corresponds to the location on the map.

In the view for Standing Orders and unplanned orders you will find all Standing Orders that have been assigned to you. You also have the option to document unplanned work here.

In the calendar view, the current calendar week is displayed. However, you can use the arrow keys to navigate one calendar week into the past or the future.

If all Work Steps of a Work Order are scheduled at the same time, only the Work Order is shown in the calendar view - you can tell whether it is a single Work Step or a Work Order by the small icon in the lower right corner.

2.2 Overview Projects / Cases / Standing Orders

If you click on a Project or a Case in the list view or on a Standing Order in the view for Standing Orders, you will get an overview of all associated Work Orders. In this overview you can also see basic information about the customer. Click on the Work Order you want to execute to get detailed information.

You can navigate back by clicking on the vertical bars (All Project/Cases/Standing Orders) on the left side of the Work Order list.

Tools that are required to execute the Work Order are displayed under the documents. You can also click on the tools to obtain more detailed information.

At the bottom of the screen, WorkHeld displays the equipment that were assigned to the individual Work Steps.
