Assign Material to a Work Order

When you issue material, you can assign it to a specific work order. When it's issued to a work order, it's added as actual material in Respond.

PREREQUISITES: A work order must be created first in Respond. See Create an Attached Work Order in the Respond 5.8 Guide for more information.
