Overview

Work Order Management Software for Better Operational Control

Managing hundreds of maintenance, repair, production or service tasks through spreadsheets and manual communication can quickly become difficult. Managers may not know which work orders are pending, employees may receive incomplete information, materials may be unavailable when work starts, approvals can get delayed and completed jobs may not have proper documentation.

Create work orders from requests, schedules or sales orders
Assign work to technicians, teams or vendors
Track pending, assigned, in-progress & completed jobs
Issue spare parts or materials against work orders
Record labour time and job expenses
Create approval and escalation workflows
Monitor employee and department workload
Generate work order and maintenance reports

Whether you manage a manufacturing plant, facility, service business, warehouse or multi-location operation, ERPLax can be customized according to how your teams actually receive, process and complete work.

What is it

What is Work Order Management Software?

Work Order Management Software is a digital system used to create, assign, schedule, monitor and complete jobs or tasks while maintaining a complete record of the work performed — what needs to be completed, which equipment or location is involved, who is responsible, priority, required materials, planned and actual dates, labour details, job status, cost information and completion remarks.

Basic work order software generally focuses on creating jobs, assigning employees and monitoring status. A Work Order ERP Software connects those activities with other business processes: Inventory → Purchase → Work Order → Employee → Material Consumption → Cost → Billing → Reports. This makes ERP-based work order management useful for organizations where jobs are connected with stock, procurement, production, customers, vendors, accounts or multiple departments.
