The Work Order module allows both property management employees and tenants to submit work orders for occupied spaces and common areas. Once you submit a work order, you have the ability to track the lifecycle of the work order, add files, view comments, and generate invoices.

This user guide describes the process of creating a work order from the desktop version of the Building Engines application.
