Field changes exemplified
The following example shows a typical situation which will trigger field changes. Use the table in
Field change sequence in
Work Orders
to find out which data will overwrite previously specified data in your own situation. The example given may help to identify other common situations in which field changes occur.
It would be impossible to list all potential interdependencies between fields and the resulting changes in field data, as innumerable variables are involved. These examples only serve to increase your awareness of potential interdependencies between fields.
As soon as a requestor is specified for a new request in the Work Orders TSI, the property and space linked to this requestor are automatically copied to the request. If you subsequently modify the requestor in an existing request, any data which was previously specified in the Property, Space, Department and Cost center fields will be overwritten.
For example:
A requestor Alice Jones is not linked to any work space yet. A work space is specified for requestor Alice Jones. This work space is linked to Office 310. Consequently, space 310 is automatically entered in the Space field. In this case, the work space wp1 is specified for requestor Alice Jones. This work space is linked to Office 310.
