Associate ELM to Work Activities

Users can select which work activities to add information to, such as labor, equipment, material, and/or line items and if they should be associated with specific tasks or assets on the work activity.

NOTE: All images were taken from a work order. While there are differences between the work activities, the functionality and the steps are the same.

If there are multiple work orders, select the desired work orders in the Work Order panel to add labor, equipment, material, and/or line items costs. If you select more than one work activity, the costs are divided among them automatically.
