Under the Parts Management section you can now find a subsection titled Parts Requests. A part requests queue is now available for your parts personnel to manage the incoming parts requests from work orders. They have the ability to submit purchase orders if needed or mark parts as ready for delivery/ ready for pick up. Once the parts have been marked as ready for delivery/ ready for pick up an email will go out to the requester (if an email is included in the requester’s user profile) stating that information. There is also a gallery mode option to display the status of the parts requests. For instructions on how to submit a parts request through a work order please refer to Parts Requests Through WO
