Activating a Work Order

Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to activate a Work Order in SAP Fieldglass to engage a contingent worker.

Activating a Work Order

The timing of work order activation may depend on any existing integrations with your organization's internal systems and SAP Fieldglass. Some programs find it beneficial to ensure the worker has arrived prior to activating, but this can delay tasks like system access or building access set up if this is driven by an integration using worker data.

Here's how a work order is activated:

Three consecutive screenshots depicting the activation of a work order. The first shows a status of accepted and highlights the Activate button. The second shows the Activate Work Order modal with a confirmation message and highlights the OK button. The third shows the status as Activated.

1	Select the Activate button on the Work Order
2	The Activate Work Order Modal window appears. Selecting OK to confirm
3	The Work Order is activated, as indicated by the status, and will initiate the registration email to the worker.

The worker will need to register in SAP Fieldglass for their worker record to be created and to submit their applicable time sheets.
