Create a Work Package

You can group existing changes together under a new parent change to create a work package. This can be useful, for example, when you have an existing work package with 100 separate tasks, and 90 of those tasks have been completed. You can select the remaining ten tasks and create a new work package with a new parent change. The ten tasks become tasks under the new change, and any children become children of the new change.

The system assigns new task numbers to the tasks brought together in the new work package.

To create a work package:

  1. On the List tab, filter the list to display the records you want to add to a work package.

  2. Select the Select Records check box at the bottom of the List tab. Note: You may need to narrow your result set before you can select records.

  3. To select records, select the Select Record check box for each record. If you want to select all of the records in the list, select the Select All Records check box in the table header.

  4. From the Select Action menu, select Create Work Package. The system creates a new work order on the main tab.

  5. Fill in fields as needed. An asterisk (*) indicates a required field.

  6. Click Save Change .
