Create a work order from a project in Project Operations

Project managers can initiate field work directly by creating a work order from the project level in Project Operations. A project can have multiple work orders across different tasks.

Project managers can also associate existing work orders with projects to align previously created or in-progress work with the project structure.

To create a work order from a project task, go to Create a work order from a project task.
