In This Article
Introduction
A Heldup is a condition that can prevent a Ticket from being closed. There are two types of Heldups: Manual Heldups and System Generated Heldups.
Manual Heldups
Manual Heldups are created by a user and placed on a Ticket. These must be resolved before the Ticket can be closed.
System Generated Heldups
System Generated Heldups are triggered automatically by the system when specific conditions are not met, such as a missing Purchase Order or Unapproved Labor.
System Generated Heldups can be either a hard stop or a soft stop:
- Hard stops prevent a Ticket from being closed. These are noted with a checkbox. A Ticket cannot be closed until all hard stop reasons are resolved.
- Soft stops are notifications of an existing condition but do not prevent a Ticket from being closed.
System Generated Heldups are also categorized into the following categories: Header, Labor, Misc, Parts, Segments/Operations, and Warranty.
Viewing Heldups
