To close service orders

You can close a service order in the Close Service Orders and Copy to History (tssoc2201m000) session. In this session, you can set the status of the order, the related activity lines, and the related cost lines to Closed. The service order and related lines can be posted to history or can be deleted.

Note

To post the service-order data to history, you must select the Service Order History check box in the Service Order Parameters (tssoc0100m000) session.

If you select the Delete Service Order check box, the specified range of orders is also removed from the Service Orders (tssoc2100m000) session.

Only orders that have a Costed or Canceled status can be processed. If these orders and related lines are posted to history, the following history sessions are updated:

  • Service Order History (tssoc8551m000)
  • Service Order Activity Line History (tssoc8552m000)
  • Service Order Material Cost History (tssoc8555m000)
  • Service Order Labor Cost History (tssoc8556m000)
  • Service Order Other Cost History (tssoc8557m000)

If you close an order, LN performs the following checks:

  1. The order must not be blocked.
  2. All order cost lines must have the Posted to Finance status.
  3. If tools are required to carry out the order, all tools must be returned. The tool requirements must have been deleted from the Estimated Tool Requirements (titrp0111m000) session.

If one of these conditions is not met, the order will not be closed and will not be posted to history.
