Print a Batch of Work Orders
You can print a copy of each order on the Work Order List screen.
- Click or tap the Actions button and then choose Print Batch.
- It is best to use Filters before you choose this option.
- This is because Print Batch does create a PDF report composed of one copy of each order in list view—including orders displayed on subsequent screens.
- In other words, if no filters are applied and there are 100s of orders in the list view—only 25 are displayed per screen, but still, Print Batch creates a PDF report of one copy of each of the 100s of work orders.
- The PDF can be accessed from the Reports screen.
- Performo Worker automatically opens the Reports screen when the PDF is created.
- The reports screen is where you can view and print the batch of work orders.
